Emmanuelle Andrianjafy (b. 1983, Madagascar) lives in Dakar, Senegal. She graduated and worked as an electrical engineer before pursuing photography in 2013. Her latest project Nothing’s in Vain is her response to the experience of uprooting to the Senegalese capital. The work was the winner of the 2017 MACK First Book Award, Contemporary African Photography Prize and finalist of the Aperture Portfolio Prize.

Her work has been featured, among others, in the British Journal of Photography, Contemporary And, American Suburb X, and forthcoming CNN African Voices. She has exhibited at Photo London, the Aperture Foundation, the Athens Photo Festival, and Addis Foto Fest.
