A skull is like a good book. It can record the major events and the memories of your life. It can heal itself when broken. Holding everything together to realign your focus on mortality.
Afro Love II A big afro is a reflection of a big heart.
Synopsis
Through my work I'm adulating & celebrating the aesthetics of natural African hair, thus including the manner it's often variously styled and carried by both females & males, especially how it defies the archaic western draconian standards of beauty that have been policing people of Africa and of African descendance on how they should style and carry their own natural hair since time immemorial.
The celebration and acceptance of natural African hair is a powerful and positive step towards reclaiming cultural identity and promoting self-love and acceptance. It's important to acknowledge and appreciate the diverse ways in which people choose to style and carry their natural hair, as it's a reflection of their individuality and cultural heritage.
Floating through a dream. The Congo basin, home to so much life, yet so much strife. What it is, what it could be, has been a point of contention for so long; a place that many dream simply of experiencing, while others dream of owning. This sacred land, holds in its waters the essence of hope, and in the roots of its trees, the Congo and its Basin, hold the cataclysm.
Rediscovering the greats. A lot of hand painted wall art is chalked up as tribal, uncivilised, unexposed. And yet, if we dare to remember, the lessons and the stories told through these walls. If we dare to remember, the sanctity of the art, we would see, truly see, they knew all along. We are the ones who forgot.
An exploration of settlements like the Ba-ila village in an afrofuturistic solar punk world. The Ba-ila village, like many other villages across Africa, is an architectural wonder in Southern Zambia. Using fractals to structure their houses, the settlement is a communal effort. With no ‘project lead’, the settlements were just simply a part of the people. This is just how they were, unencumbered, an echo of the ancient ability to just know, inherently.
