‘Khamekaye’ means ‘landmark’ in Wolof, one of the most widely spoken languages in Senegal. It is used exclusively to refer to the unique structures made up of branches, plastic waste, fishing nets, and various objects that mark the Grande-Côte. Along the 150km stretch of Sengal’s coastline between Dakar and the Ricer Senegal estuary, these structures are beach signals that show fishermen where the villages are located further inland. Paula Anta explores the relationship between humans and the environment, and the resulting human interventions. This project received the Premi Mallorca de Fotografía Contemporània 2020 award.
