Ibrahima Sanl\u00e9 Sory was born in Burkina Faso in 1943. Photographer and owner of the Volta Photo studio, he lives and works in Bobo-Dioulasso, the country’s second largest city. The collection of the Ch\u00e2teau d’Eau is enriched in 2020 with 4 self-portraits of the artist. Since the beginning of the studio, Sanl\u00e9 Sory has produced dozens of self-portraits in a personal artistic approach.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n
