Description
This image comes from "African Arenas", a major photography project produced over a ten-year period by Thomas Hoeffgen. The project tells the story of a continent through its football pitches.

The work has appeared in print many times and was published in 2010 in Germany by the publisher Hatje Cantz. It was awarded a prestigious International Photograpy Award in 2011.

Taken in Lagos, this image revisits one of the pitches where I had seen the Nigerian international, Jonathan Akpoborie, take his first steps as a player.

Thomas Hoeffgen is a German photographer born in 1957. He currently lives and works in Brooklyn where he works with several different international magazines in the advertising field.

He started practicing photography when he was young, while he was doing his social service in a ship with young criminals. He decided then to photograph these adolescents in spontaneous scenes of their daily life on board.

At the end of his social service, he moved to Spain where he became the assistant of a photograph, before even finishing his photography studies. It was then that he started his work for big fashion brands and in advertising.
