The quarterly magazine of New York-based photography foundation of the same name, Aperture is the flagship representation of their commitment to contemporary photography. 

This issue was guest edited by artist Lyle Ashton Harris and photographer Nii Obodai. The two residents of Accra had wanted to collaborate for some time, and the opportunity to guest edit Aperture while highlighting the Ghanian capitol was a  serendipitous confluence. Inside, features on Carlos Idun-Tawiah's nostalgic family portrait series, scenes from Makola Market, and the experience of returning to Ghana as a member of the African diaspora.
