#WIPCOOP 2024

In a universe torn apart by conflict, lost souls seek to reconnect with their ancestral beliefs. Guided by Mino, the supreme goddess, and the divine mothers, Milka Mbunga Kongi explores the vitality hidden in the past. Through a series of poetic scenes, she discovers the power of mortal existence, illuminated by the sacred essence of their eternal guides. Celles qui manquent is a spiritual quest that celebrates resilience and the deep connection between the past and the present.

This sets the tone for an introspective and moving journey, in which each image represents a facet of the human soul in search of meaning and serenity. Celles qui manquent invites each viewer to reflect on their own existence and discover the timeless power that resides within each of us, sustained by the legacy of previous generations.
