This sale represents the first collaboration between Magnum Photos and The Everyday Projects, a global network that began as Everyday Africa in 2012. Everyday Africa set out to challenge the media- driven stereotypes that affect the continent by featuring images of everyday life made by a community of contributing photographers that live or work extensively on the continent.

The viral success of this first iteration of the project led to an expanding international movement with like-minded storytellers worldwide creating their own @Everyday feeds on Instagram, using photography to combat cliché, promote local norms, and celebrate global commonalities.
