Photographer, Yetunde Babaeko, holds a first of its kind breast cancer awareness photo exhibition geared to inspire the Nigerian public to join in the fight against cancer.
The photo exhibition titled “Battle Scar” will hold on the 8th of March at the Goethe Institute, Onikan by 2 pm.
This exhibition will showcase photos taken by a group of independent professional female photographers led by popular photographer and owner of Camara-Studios, Yetunde Babaeko. The exhibition, according to Yetunde Babaeko, is driven by a collective vision “to make a lasting impact through the lens of the camera.”
“Breast cancer patients need to know that this does not limit ambition. Knowing this inspires the zeal to impact the lives of females to reach out and accomplish their dreams regardless of the health issues they have. Also being ‘breast aware’ plays a major role in early detection so I was especially pleased to be a part of this initiative which will make ladies more aware and become proactive with breast examination and talking to their doctors,” Yetunde Babaeko said.
The maiden edition will feature real life photos of breast cancer patients, survivors, their families and the strategies they employ in coping with the disease.
