Planet Hibiscus #34

“Planet Hibiscus is a planet that feels old, but is more advanced than ours or any other planet in the universe. With the help of MidJourney, I imagined being sent as a photographer to document the coronation and wedding of Hibiscus’ new monarch and her partner. I imagined shooting the experience on a medium-format film camera.

In ‘Planet Hibiscus,’ we see kids gathering wool and ribbons from the lake to receive the royal couple. We get a peek at the event crew holding rehearsals with dancers and entertainers. We meet the chefs responsible for the event’s delights. We watch the queen arriving in her royal carriage. We even catch a glimpse of a guest struggling to get a ride to the event.” — Adaeze Okaro
