Scooters will never die!!!

---

A project for which I collaborated with refugees from different African countries where they have a tradition of customizing vehicles into riding art works. Part of the scooter metamorfose team was Mamoon Hashim (a spray painter from Sudan), Abdulaziz Manon (a designer from Sudan) and Bacardi Zouberou (a mechanic from Kameroen)

The project fights and compares the prejudices people have against both refugees and scooter drivers in Amsterdam. Every scooter is customized to the wishes of the owner who is portrayed with it and they all can be seen now driving through Amsterdam. This project was made in collaboration with Het Tijdelijk Museum. Coverage has been published in the New York Times, De Volkskrant and Het Parool.
