This exposition is in progress and its share status is: visible to all.
This visual essay reflects, through a haptic experience, on the ongoing wave of protests in Mozambique. These began with the death of rapper Azagaia in March 2023, continued through the municipal elections months later, and have since transformed into a nationwide revolt against electoral fraud, police violence, corruption, and the dominant Frelimo party.
