Dakar-based photographers Antoine Tempé and Omar Victor Diop have collaborated on a photographic exhibit entitled Onomollywood, in which classic scenes from American and French films are recreated with Senegalese models. Not only does the series give a more universal context to these iconic films, it also highlights a Senegalese setting and, in particular, the Onomo Hotels. The series, consisting of 20 images, will be on display beginning November 2013 in Dakar, Abidjan, and Libreville. After the jump, check out a sampling of Tempé and Diop’s work, as spotted on Huffington Post.
