The western world creates 40 tonnes of electronic waste (e-waste) per year. Under the heading of development aid, we ship our old computers, TVs, air conditioners and telephones, mostly to countries in West Africa. Agbogbloshie, the largest electronic garbage dump in the world, is located in the Ghanaian capital Accra. Here old appliances are disassembled in a search for copper wire and other parts still to be sold. During the incineration of residual materials, carcinogenic substances are released; the 3000 residents of the waste district rarely grow old but refuse to turn their backs on their only source of income.
As an internationally published artist based in Amsterdam, Domin Meinema is specialized in documentary photography.
With a focus on equality, she seeks beauty in places we least expect it. What do you know about love stories in the slums, happiness in the rain and wealthy men with zero euros on their bank accounts? Have you seen the survival urge of anorexia patients? The faith in our society that refugees show us?
With that focus, Domin raises awareness too. Not with a biased opinion about what's right or wrong, but with curiosity and an open mind. Pictures have been featured in magazines and newspapers including Happinez, Algemeen Dagblad, Runner's World, Viva, Parents of Now, Het Parool, Viva, Metro and Zin.
