we noticed there was lack of knowledge about africa, not positive light. we wanted to do something about that and what better way to do it then a, a wearable storytelling piece. 2015 is when the idea came. ah, when my co founder of partner saddler and i met for coffee, we were both friends since i school. i'll we had moved abroad for our higher education. i had decided to move back to yoga and we started discussing what was our experience living abroad? what was our takeaway from that experience and also the love of jewelry that we both shared. so with that conversation as what today as the any so one of our design piece that tells on authentic it up in story is the doors a mostly practice by people in the south. what's interesting about the story is these were warriors that turned peaceful artisans. once the country was at peace,
5:34 pm
united, they no longer needed to be warriors and go fighting. so they transitioned into becoming artisans and creating these masterful pieces of design that they became expert. that all of the jewelry is made from recycled from play to the 1400 gold rhodium responsibly and ethically thought it the opium. semi precious came stones, all home crafted by artisans in ethiopia. the reason we started with as a home base is because both my partner and i are born and raised here. so we know the local craftmanship, the resources that are available, and don't have that platform to be shared with the world. for instance, the gemstone that we for the letters that we source are all from women on businesses just so that we can create that exposure for their business and also for us as well to learn from each other. this metal frame right here is traditionally used as an air pick for people to clean your ears. but the interesting part of
5:35 pm
this, while we're doing research behind the piece, was that in the old and these, the window region. this was a gift for right to be either honorary gift and they've got to wear it as a necklace on a single thread. they would wear the different kinds of european they have and that showed the status of the family and there. well. so when trying to decide what type of color we want it for this don't we went for something that's between a mother night and marine, which is the crystal crest that you see right here, which is a great complement for the gold is not overbearing or overshadowing and it goes very well with any skin tone which we have to keep in mind. who are audiences are p . p. o is known to have significant deposits of 89 different him. so the semi precious came 30 may come from one of the only female own lines in the country.

ah, pensioner machine wash, i'm not used to me back. so it's done manually. like what does, it is highly likely that the show was damaged, if museums on her tunnel cover thing on. oh, yeah. so we'll use manual labels like the surrounding areas are predict a big dingo truman demco and was joined going to be broken tacoma the business is borderline and operates entirely online. the conceptualization of each design takes place and video colds between silicate sibley and they collaborate of all around the world. they ensure that the history is maintained in each piece through consulting with historians. with dazzling to we pieces honoring south africa, ethiopia, every trio kenya, and many more unique stories are preserved for an eternity. the way we approach our designs is by selecting a country warren, the future, and bring up the cultural and heritage aspect of that country. i believe the rest
5:37 pm
of the world is looking towards africa now, is because they're realizing how much wealth there is and was always there, but never had that opportunity to be shared. and i think it's a movement that's happening is not just the one time fave. that's happening is that actual movement where people are really believing that we need to invest in ourselves majority of the designs. if you look back in the history, there is a lot of inspiration that was taken from african the 1st place. now when we're looking in words ourselves, we're also forcing the world to look and words with us. liner cutting is a way of creating art using linoleum to cut out the arts and print it at a later stage. with me as print making artist time d, comalla. hi tandy. thank you for joining us today. how do you get to print out more than one color? that must be accomplished. now,
5:38 pm
because it is all good because it opens up your mind and allows you to be creative to play and explore because in odd, you have to explore people who and, and if you do not, you buy a multi point. so you can have multiple cutting the 3 because in printing different when you do them many who they are very broad. so there's a little, there's like no, the screen to change if to start the trowbridge and then you go to the plate in the page is the negative. that goes to the, the machine in the machine, you the best product. so the leno, the place where the leno is the plate that we use so that you can get the proper and financed product of the product of the actrix. you see so much fashion and love for your work that i really want to get straight into it and start creating ought
5:39 pm
of about the receiver last the gloss on this fascinating way of art. but before we do that, we joined justice mckelly, who's artistic expression can not be limited to one medium. it's check this out. i think it's overcome time creatively because we now have a voice and we can contribute to the global conversation. as equals, the internet has created a space where the access to dialogue, the access to participate in the places that have been inaccessible to us. because of the country of context and history. i used to call myself and re nathan's men, because when i found out what the word men could relate to it because i've got them anytime. and so my telephone creates, have adjusted kaylee is off the new generation of african storytellers. he moved comfortably between the mediums or full photography and a fine art as
5:40 pm
a self titled renaissance men. someone who has mastered many different skills justice, understand the african way of storytelling, and brings it to a modern audience through these different mediums. so convey a strong, a social message, a started throwing early primary school. my dad drew a portrait of my brother and i sitting with him listening to music. and when i thought it, i thought, oh my, that's going to the if i can to can get into the shelter. just sit here and look at me. did graffiti, then i did divine that, went into direction and then i went to photography. then photography brought me back for painting, which is part of drawing and photography brought directing me. i find that the references that i prefer using and i feel more connected to
5:41 pm
a photograph that i create. i can spend some time with the model if object creating images that are fine on photographs that are also you, those my references for my fine art paintings. the most important thing to me is not continuing it in style, but continue to in feeling without the limitations of being expected to create sameness. justice. have an odd studio in the popular shopping and office. 3 things . 44 stanley in johannesburg. yet he spends time working on drawing and paintings that gets sold through art galleries that he is represented by internationally. my big picture message depends on where i am at a certain point in time and why i am in the certain point in time and looking into masculinity and really looking at where to spending that story.
5:42 pm
so much for work has been done by the generation before us that we have the luxury to look at how we want to present ourselves as men. their purpose and duty for their generation was to fight for our freedom as a people. and now that we are here, i feel like looking at how we are, it's really important the challenges the world feels in regards to masculinity is an issue that is caused by us men and we should be there solution to that. not there people that are affected by our ways that we are and what my work at the moment. justice move so fluidly between mediums that he has become a very force off the creative in south africa, especially in the advertising space. my primary career is filmmaking for my film
5:43 pm
director. i love it so much because of the one medium that's able to bring all my disciplines into one and can create feeling and move beyond just a painting where photograph. but i don't create looking for certain outcome, hoping for people to feel a certain way. i just hope that the work can make them feel, however they feel justice is not just talented, but incredibly passionate. his dedication to his coughed is evidence in his continuous striving to expand his skill set and evolved into an even better story teller. by reaching the audience through the formats, the speak to them, most africa, the continent, colonized and renew with the, introduced to us with us being included in the conversation. it's very important to
5:44 pm
define who we are and with our own voice, far own people. that way we present ourselves and how we see ourselves in key to africans to retain. because my experience in important my position is unique and not the full key and part of the people that are contributing to the conversation off. julio arg, the i'm in the heart of artistry studio where the magic happens now of this type of printing only know the pieces was me popular by auto, such as pablo, picasso and hindley mathias. and to day a, we're going to get straight into the action or how everything happens. tandy are ready to join you. so can i grab this?

5:46 pm
before you actually start painting our correct. so this is the love, the played that to use. aluminum can new. so this one is you draw on top of the sleep. first let's it's going to be playing. when you buy it, you place not. oh, so this is an entire drawing that the, you made. yes. his own resonating. so you draw 1st on top, whatever image you wanted, and then from there you scoop. so this is the material that we use. so any school which is going like this. so you have to know that if you school don't put your hands like this, you have to have all this put your hand like this. so that if he scoop, you just go like this. you know, you know, just to get everything done in high school. so yeah, we can, we can, you can school, he said, and yes, you're here to balance the plaza. it does. yeah. because of when you move, there you go go. yeah.

5:49 pm
so we're going to go to my se me no j j to see what this master chef has to offer shape without a 25 year old martino. jetta is a master of his craft. his signature dishes are famous, even outside mozambique capital map. udo. but my salinas passed to the world of what queen was hardly straightforward. initially he been to family pressure by starting an engineering degree. which taught marcelina just one thing. he really wanted to become a chef with jennifer papers. i was no longer going to school basically, and i really didn't have the motivation to go anymore for school. i started to feel a little bit depressed knowing it wasn't what i wanted to go get here. with mozambique, the economy, growing high school graduates, encouraged to pursue academic degrees to leaving their a passport to a better life. so motherly knows parents took some convincing,
5:50 pm
not even his partner. andrea was on board at 1st. i give me some english in austria beach by him. ernst with those thoughts into our heads like a group that's not going to make money that you have to be a doctor. you have to be an engineer. and so one, so even i had doubts. but at the end of the day, i saw how his eyes lit up. every time he talked about cooking, healed cleaning philosophies. in january 2017 molina traveled to italy where he took part in a year long course to become a kitchen and pastry chef. he started at the bottom and worked his way up, but it was anything but smooth sailing. considerable. i don't know, but i started working at bell pierre too, and in the beginning it wasn't easy. it's another dynamic who didn't go to work at a t. m returned home at 91011 pm. my letter was good because i realized even more than yes, this is what i want. mm hm. key. okay. this fight is impressive. qualifications,
5:51 pm
motherly mouth shut like him on oil given the recognition they deserve. and his home country, warmer the food such of losing. well, the biggest challenge of being a chef in mozambique is social recognition from dallas ition that it's a real job and he demands a lot from the cook. and it's not just one cool cuz it's a team. maybe just to make one dish. it's very hard and precise what cool wound wound what he sees from kitchen and turned to head. jeff. all it took was some hard work and a dash of risk taking more. selena once again proves that if you find something you love to do, you will never work a day in your life. it's off the guy now with the prince of a different kind. as the traditional math clock and traditional fabric friends, i give them a new look why this talented designer and her tea with . i used to be big on going to the,
5:52 pm
as my kids soon found artifacts and general art stuff. and i saw much cloth, and it hits me that i hadn't seen it being used in clothing. it was only pools and ball hangings and thought and stuff like that. so the big idea came protecting out textiles to modern designs. oh, a rama. mankato, supreme child threaded tribes has seen unprecedented success. noticed 20 locals love to be seen in one of her creations. awful young fairs as far flung as paris and buick. her thread is a must have passed the boy into pin. yeah. she worked her way up into the success story. she is today with the designs i, we me, we are very intentionally curious that because we're not in school fast passion, our brand is very slow here. so we make sure that they need is only make customers
5:53 pm
are able to reuse the desired multiple times as opposed to having one abstract fees . i become barely where anyway, so our designs, i just intentionally made with the idea that the are close as the fall, where basically building a community of ours round and look how craftsmanship and so all our resources take 1000 breaks them every being asked was from the local communities for something i believe he really runs through, i entire process from fabric sourcing to where it ends up with the pieces that we end up creasing. they really have nothing to do with the traditional meanings of wherever we pull the fabrics form. it's about the textile itself and the fact that it comes from assessing community and an indigenous name thread. a tribes refers to a technique of carefully hand woven cloth with patents and symbols all coming
5:54 pm
together beautifully. let's see the weaving process of katy from ghana where it's been my address. i am able to create simple and complex designs with this settled. however, the designs are often memorized about the duct brumley bar. i love me to tighten the thread, the, to white, to leave this in a combination brings out your desired pattern where it will man him on. i think a think it's as at the a single level. well, however, we give you just the plain view ability, which means no design for we need to know all mark wanted to let this installation manuel and so repass will finish in pulling the contraption while you through the spool rhythmically to get the intelligence slate on your we grow, oh wow, we're doing it is important that the fabrics or textiles come from the original source mod cloth that we use comes from molly boley or
5:55 pm
indigo that we use come straight from cordova and i'm gonna we use hulu and can say so far the hulu comes directly from the northern region, and they can see comes from the south, which is kumasi. and in the future we aim to really use text us across the afghan continent. so for example, if it goes, if you fia, and we find ville bits, we will pull bill this month, which i'll community is condescension use involve it. and then we'll pull that to make our clothing. i'll insist this and news changes to luxury investing in and where we locally produce hand woven fabrics. a rama continues this tradition and lives out her dream in protecting the african and textile industry. a wonderful time bringing you the latest fashion are to design and food and of course,
