Kervin Maule’s photographic goal is to examine the cultural, physical, and spiritual life of Africans in the Diaspora. This series, titled "Portraits of Ibo Children", was taken in the village of Ibo in the state of Owerri, Nigeria, West Africa, in 1998. He states, “they are proud and dignified children who live in poverty every day. I felt a close relationship with them because of my own experience as a black child growing up in the Diaspora.”
