Hello! I’m Gil-Christ, a Benin-based visual artist, photographer, and graphic designer. I blend street photography with visual storytelling to capture memories, identities, and everyday life, collaborating with cultural spaces and creative collectives to tell vibrant, meaningful stories.
I’m based in Cotonou and speak Fon, French, and English. I’m always open to collaborations that push creative boundaries and connect people through images and design.
