Renée Akitelek Mboya is a writer, curator and filmmaker. Her custom is one that relies on biography and storytelling as a form of research and production. She is presently preoccupied with looking and speaking about images and the ways in which they are produced but especially how they have come to play a critical role as evidence of white paranoia, and as aesthetic idioms of racial violence.
 
Renée Akitelek Mboya works between Dakar and Nairobi and is a collaborative editor with the Wali Chafu Collective.
