Photographer Jan Hoek collaborated with Ugandan-Kenyan dressmaker Bobbin Case on a undertaking targeted on the Boda Boda motor taxis roaming Nairobi. Because the drivers crafted vibrant and accessorized bikes to face out one another, the pair labored with a set of them to create apparel to match. The result’s the photograph collection “Boda Boda Insanity.”
“We chosen seven Boda Boda drivers with essentially the most superior bikes and sat down with every of them to create model new outfits to finish the characters,” Hoek says. “I photographed the Boda Boda drivers with their new seems within the model of actual life motion figures in entrance of Nairobi landscapes. The great factor is that due to their new outfits their revenue went up, so that they actually saved on utilizing their costumes. Perhaps should you by likelihood go to Nairobi one in every of them might be your taxi man.”
