David Ballam - Ilha 43

A selection of images taken in and around Ilha de Moçambique. The island, which is located in northern Mozambique, was used as a vital trading link between Asia, Africa and Europe. For 400 years the island was to be the capital of Portuguese East Africa.

David Ballam was born and schooled in Johannesburg, South Africa. He first attended university in Cape Town but later moved to Rhodes University in the Eastern Cape. He was introduced to the camera by Obie Oberholzer and in 2004 gained his Fine Art Degree with Honours in photography. David returned to Johannesburg and after several years’ experience in the commercial world of photography he reverted his attention back to his Fine Art roots. Intrigued and inspired by new faces, places, culture’s and customs David focuses his attention on taking any opportunity to travel and explore the African landscape, finding and creating images that transcend the subject matter into Fine Art prints.
