She had to deal with some difficult moments in her life that include losing her job in 2022. But photographer, Tshepo Phokoje has finally discovered her purpose in life through photography, writes GOITSEMODIMO KAELO

Phokoje’s recent effervescent exhibition of her “never seen before photographs” was not just a presentation of Botswana’s natural beauty but also a demonstration of her life journey. The exhibition titled, ‘Ikigai’ was held at the Cotton Cloud in the Fields Mall on May 26-27.

Her photographs on display showed the beauty of Botswana’s natural wildlife and environment. They take one through a journey of emotions and her love for photography which started as just a burning sensation to capture moments for memories.
