HEIKO RICHARD has realized an important project for International Women’s Day 2022, for which he produced proactively with heart and soul for the United Action Women And Girls e.V. with activist Fatuma Musa Afrah and a total of fourteen protagonists in the studio over the course of two days.
Heiko was supported by Delight Rental Services, Stink Films, Doity film production, the advertising agency Glow, as well as advertising agency Theo for print.
United Action Women and Girls e.V. is based on an initiative by activist Fatuma Musa Afrah, who has been committed to the empowerment of women and girls seeking protection in the Berlin-Brandenburg region for years due to personal experiences while fleeing and upon arrival. Fatuma was born in Somalia and grew up in Kenya after fleeing from the civil war. She studied social work as well as development cooperation in Mombasa and Nairobi. Since 2012, she has worked for international aid organizations in Mogadishu and at the refugee camp Dadaab in Kenya. After she arrived in Germany, she spent the first years depressed and isolated in a refugee camp. She has since been active in projects conceived by her for women and girls who are seeking protection.

The Lofoten Islands, known for the aurora borealis, mountain peaks protruding from the surface of the ocean, the midnight sun and small fishing villages, served as the impressive setting for the shoot by HEIKO RICHARD for INTERSECTION MAGAZINE Germany – for which the photographer accompanied a PORSCHE MACAN with a camera and drone. He presents us the result here in ‘DANCING WITH MYSELF’ (styling: Luis Hartmann, casting: Remi Felipe, model: Kassim Traore c/o EliteParis, and creative direction by OOR Studio with post by Grainbird).
The Porsche Design Team was asked about the new color Papaya in the magazine : “Besides Macan’s new elegant color Gentian Blue, we wanted to offer an additional, very sporty tone. Which is why we suggested Papaya which is also part of the Panamera color program… I think we succeeded quite well in doing so with the name Papaya. The intensive orange-yellow hue of the papaya fruit immediately comes to mind along with memories of summer.” The complete interview is available via INTERSECTION as well as further works by Heiko on heiko-richard.com.
