About Limit(less):
Limit(less) is a photography project by Mikael Owunna documenting the fashion and style of LGBTQ African Immigrants (1st and 2nd generation) in diaspora in North America and Europe. The project seeks to visually deconstruct the colonial binary which states that one cannot be both LGBTQ and African. #LimitlessAfricans
