Bamako Railway Station has been built over the years 20 of the last century by the French with the inauguration of the legendary Dakar-Bamako line.
It was initially used to transport the resources extracted in Mali to the port of Dakar but then transformed into a fundamental means of movement of people, goods and traditions between the two countries.
Ora, less than a century after its birth, the line is stopped and so are its employees, angry and helpless, they spend their time as they can.
In the meantime, creative activities continue in various areas of the city.
If you want to support the projects, entirely self-financed, you can do it by bank transfer to the following coordinates.
You will receive a little gift when I return.
Thank you

The Bamako Railway Station was built in the 20’s with the creation of the legendary Dakar-Bamako Railway by the French.
Firstly the aim was to move the resources extracted in Mali to the Dakar Port but consequently it became a fundamental exchange and communucation way for people, goods and traditions between these two countries.
Now, not even a century since its realization, the Railway Is stuck as its angry but powerless employees who are passing time as they could.
In the meanwhile the art activities are keeping on in different places around the city.
If somebody was interested in supporting the self-funded project my Bank Account details are :

I don't have time to understand where I find that Bamako welcomes me vorticily.
The people I meet on the street accompany me to discover their daily lives.
The first tea (Chinese) And the first eaten rice with onion soup in the large collective basin officially welcome me.
In all this wonder I try a certain anger to see such a multitude of young people slender towards progress but blocked by the geopolitical and mineral interests that bring this immense country to their knees.
A country that until a few years ago saw itself crossing far and wide by tourists and who now cannot guarantee the safety of his people.
But as it almost always happens, who has less is who gives more.
I’ve not even had the time to get aware of the place where I am that Bamako wildly hugs me.
The people I meet on the street guide me to the discover of their daily Life.
The first (chinese) tea and the first shared Rice and onion soup pot officially welcome me.
Among this amazing experience I feel a bit angry by watching bunches of eager youngsters stuck in difficoult conditions due to the geopolitical and mineral interests which deprives this huge country.
A country that had been crossed by tourists until a few years ago and now it can’t even put in safety its people.
But as often happens the less you have and the more you give.

I will dance, Palermo.
He is Massimo, Senegalese boy in Italy for five years now. He speaks five languages and works as an interpreter in a reception centre.
He still has never been able to return to visit his family in Tambacounda, south of the Senigal.
He left me two school backpacks to take to his granddaughters.
