What if the archive were not a place of memory, but of rebirth? In Archive Project, Maxime Manga reimagines what it means to collect, remix, and reclaim. Through his luminous digital collages, fragments of African tradition, fashion, and futurism collide and converge, creating a new visual language that speaks of both ancestry and possibility.

Across these images, bodies become constellations, symbols pulse with rhythm, and colour transforms into emotion. Maxime builds worlds from the traces of others, pixel by pixel, layer by layer, until history itself begins to shimmer with new life.

This book gathers those visions: a journey through identity, technology, and memory. Neither retrospective nor documentation, Archive Project is an act of resistance and imagination, a celebration of what it means to see Africa not as past or future, but as a radiant present.
