feature: cape town photographer dambakuombera captures authentic and expressive local beauty and culture

Authentic, gritty, and expressive—all words that come to mind when viewing images by photographer Dambakuombera. The native Afrikan is based in Cape Town, where the melding of cultures and stunning landscapes certainly work to the artist’s benefit by giving him access to the rich imagery and personalities of South Africa. “[My work is] a quest to change the world through my heart, I shoot with my heart and not my eyes,” he writes on Facebook. Check out some photos that stood out to us and see more of his work right over here.
