ah, focusing on religious design that create lots of joy on dw. ah, i just got it all say, well graham i'm here to day at living artist, employee and it actually reminds me of the saying if you want to go fast, go alone. but if you want to go far, go together. living artist imperium is a sustainable platform that provides materials, workspaces, and exhibitions full fine artists. and we will explore the wealth of talent and art

within these walls. as we bring you today's show. we get off to lagos, to see, to borrow a bowler in creating, ready to wear accent to a re pieces desired doe, ali shows us how malawi is adapting to more sustainable crowds and a product that can deliver from food to textile and even building material. and later we visited ex soco pro hines, the pike, as he shows us how nutrition and performance go hand in hand. i am pamela and hanger, and your watching at re max. ah, ah ah, ah,

established in 2013 living artist emporiums is applying the necessary tools, a guidance and infrastructure to enable emerging artists to find a unique and individual voice, and bring us a bay view of the world. but before we check to the mazda mind, behind this initiative, let's go to cape town and check to the some of you for creative as they shake up the scene. when somebody thinks something is not valuable, i see the beauty in it, and i think that's the beauty of art. you know, it's basically adding value to pieces that people might have lost. the law for hi, my name is, can be welcome to the flight. i'm more your studio. we come from a family of autism fashion design from liberty by the way. i continue the family legacy in cape town. i am tina mac team, viola. i am the main auto said trotter more. you study graphics design and i find

myself, i was like tie down to a beast because i like doing different things. i love and i, they feel when you do what you love you, they will look at being your life was something to me. ok. ok. so our top here looks like some odd work on it. yeah. you can use a colors, going to do a lot of pain splice. just to give a bit of a vibe away, like pop up what i'm more your style or we do in a shed for our box. leave a better but cockpit, and we're going to do the art work at the back. and that's why she had a lot of colors on it. so i was thinking of a lot of brush strokes at the back. a bit of splash to be nice, right. where you same as i come reading. we were talking to

you one bishop to be a statement. no jacket just depends on the shirt. who would companies in the fight some way a team i'd consider myself a little bit of the troublemaker. i run all things. social media growing up was a little bit like a circus. i always needed to develop myself as an individual, as a creative, to be able to stand out and just stand alone outside of the family, but also stand with the family. as kid. no one knows your friends and your weakness more than your feet or fast friends. and when you put a located in a one room ideas you have to somehow be in like business or interactive thing. ok. this is my brother for my co worker as well. so you have to manage that. i didn't know i was an artist, but when my dad passed the way in a car accident live in kid family, what single mom i was in grade 9,

but it's quite a shock because being in this country, how do we survive? so my soften, tina started doing what my dad was doing for me. he's a lot of light applicant. i me and my brother had to sell off interior with a business like 11 years. and later on i got into 5000 systems to manage a store to actually design of a brand, to starting the brand on my family. so it's been a journey so the name for the more you use a smiley phrase. mean follow the hot anything that we find interesting, we put our to it. we outside got a lot of den and we work with like vintage jacket and we just give him a new light. i'll pick up a whole furniture and a do odd pieces on it. we also work for like old manny, can we turn him into beautiful land? i'm actually going to pick up one the right now. you guys should come with me. i believe they should be less cause in the world. i was fortunate enough to start

a cycling group with the collective of friends. we call it the most inclusive cycle group in the countries is good for the environment or we encourage more people to get by i think kept on has a lot of paternity. i like the pace of it. i like the see the mountain view. you feel like you in europe, and also you feel like you're in africa to have balance is really good. hey, man, i can who will probably have to cut with fido. and we probably have to trim the side and then we'd do line work on top of the i'm very much south africans, but like my, my heart is congolese,

those things coming together to fight them way of story creating this blend of our pause, being the d c, our present being south africa and the future being when we take it to the world. we believe it's time for africa to step up and present our talent to the rates of the world and remind every african creative believe in the cross to be living. the dream, and that's why we want to really then quite the more and i used to be tell people where i live, where we having tonight, we just calling people to come paint with us. you get the get a canvas less paint and we just going to be damming. who's ah, such beautiful and timeless pieces. i literally immersing myself in this beautiful

face for the eyes and living artist, implore you, actually eric, who found it. beautiful space. now eric, the name of living artist in for you is addressing something of really high importance. i may use the different for all living we still on the earth and we try to make it ourselves in a way, in a lot industry that's a bit difficult to enter into. we call it the source of the or it's a combination of ortho studios and we also have the calorie component. so all the ot with the to see is basically being created at the studios upstairs. we always taking the approach for the collective, the collective is much better than being trying to do these things by itself. so authors do get a lot of influences from out of this, but also get some, some support and also ideas. they can bounce ideas of other people and we can also critique to work your slogan. breaking the rules of art is quite

a bold one. what does it mean and can you tell me a bit more about it? the slope was initially finished. it also fought and then we're going to break it just to be a bit table. but i think more establish, set up think you can do it like this and we've started, we're going to do it like this. and that's the beauty of thought. yes, definitely. there's no dose of all we see some of the art to see. i found for us to check out how malawi is shaking up the agricultural space, wrinkled me, you know, dressed them with my him feet while, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, malawi has been exporting tobacco since 1893. it was the 1st exported growth in

autos, a very new a british colony, but with the tightening regulations around smoking and the use of tobacco products worldwide, smoking is losing its mass appeal, which means that countries like milan, we need to find an alternative that can bring in the much needed for in revenue when the crop or gateway drag for take it him has been maligned and misunderstood. but what the booming, his cousin, medical kind of be. and the easing on legislation around is protection in an increasing number of african countries. is him finally getting the recognition exec they find out the hemp is quite an interesting crop. andy, we are very pleased to be associated with a crop that's his full of future sustainability. because we see it as

a source of food source of beaver. it is a source of building materials and also to the extent that it can even provide our high in fi shows in terms of the fabrics textiles. the one that we usually call here cannot be, or that is more popular, is the one that has 40 an intox getting element in it to the core. we tetra, hydra canal benoit's so in industrial, hemp goes in trace amount, negligible. but in the one that is locally available, we call it jumbo in our language. it is it course high concentrations of lat may be up to 20 percent of wheat. so it's the alcohol element in it, which is the difference between what we call industrial hemp and the one that is used for recreation. our business model has got 2 facets. one facet is where we are seeing here. him being grown and the greenhouse is to produce flowers than

the other facet of our business is the production of the grain, the bio mass, which we are outsourcing from the outgrow us. those are the farmers well growing debacle only as a cash crop. but now we have added him as an additional cash grow. love nobody. she wanted to see. we wanted to train, you call because i've been going to back for a very long time. didn't we wanted to see how the new quote could benefit us. we're also notating crops to improve the fertility of our soil season, instead of going the same crop every year when i'm, when i joined it, we said that hemp is a multi purpose crop. so, but over the oil that you see is ex, like, this one is edible. oil extracted from hemp seed, him grain. andy, refined for human consumption in the back, in the bottles here,

the plastic bottles, it's the hemp seed. these packages for re the, for consumption. these are all high in protein and div omega 3, omega 6 fatty acids and the i bought for nutrition by and large, and then from the flowers, the greenhouse operations that you saw over there. we have the flowers that we run through our destination meal. then we take out the c, b. so this is one of the components within b cannot be super planet, which is a can number no oil, which is very good for the body, trying to stimulate the body, helping with a bit of sleep. oh, pain. ah. so it's, it's quite good that we have seen these products coming out of it instead of just reading in the newspapers or reading it in maybe even for the media. but now we are

making them here from our own controversial, our on processing, and our on our energy in terms of how things should be done from seen oil protein powder chuckled, became rope close. and for me as an application, my mind is made up hill is the crew of the future. this particular piece is such a unique piece in the sense that it tells a unique african story. because and, and, and it is cause we st known as the bag that people carry in the location when they have a lot to carry it. how much say it will go a while to actually arrive at this point before was all is looking at other means in other ways. and, and this big just happened to be part of what i was doing, cuz it also follows into the idea of a journey. i remember back when i was still young in the rural areas there with my

grannies mold my own parents as well when they were going for like long journeys that would usually use this bank as a form of, you know, a peg. they could carry anything they could have wanted. you know, at that point, let's not travel to germany to see how it's the soccer pro hahn. so pie is eating the need generation about football and food. commer soccer pro hands are pi is a keen cook. now he's combined his 2 passions and developed a nutrition plan catering to that specific needs of competitive players the enabled trish and plays an extremely important role in competitions. uh, like the european football championship, the youngs and for because athletes are under intense pressure to perform in a short period the german gun nay, and already published a cookbook to coincide with the you a for euro 2020. but as his recipes are especially designed for soccer players,

they could also be on the menu for this years. rural championship stars. now here the crap of local, the oatmeal has lots of carbohydrate pointed on the wall mackwood. we need more carbohydrates because football players are on to move a lot more on ambia and that we have soy milk with protein. i vice i right when the protein because athletes have greater muscle mass and they're off now and after practices or a much those muscles need to regenerate that up of ian he says, the ideal breakfast like this opener with peanut butter, should contain 50 percent carbohydrates in 25 percent protein peanut butter contain lots of minerals and pu, provides extra vitamins. portion sizes depend on an athlete, body weight, and his or her level of physical exertion is, are up. i can look back on an illustrious career, back in 2011 more playing for german club shocker. his team beat italian heavy

weights, inter milan, and the champions league. you know, with amazon much come flooding back, nobody believed in us at the end. we scored 5 goals, all of them, it was an intense back and for her players had filled up on cards ahead of the match. i go for action for the cooling, for at the things that we had taken in lots of carbohydrates. why went to practice? got one that i liked and had some more passed it before kick off a meal plan that paid off on the pitch. am i no, no hes manual knew it was a gold keeper and that match against inter milan half year had that exceptional power of his is also a product and his diets into companies. norton in cobb county, just head to the gym and push weights and out of cutting. if you build up muscles but won't be able to use the full potential. hands are pi who also coaches, soccer, gets everyone together to cook meals bursting the carbohydrates

in. this food gives you more energy. this meal is fully and it's tasty. and besides the letter, the mom's cooking healthy meal should be flavorful and fine. after a long day on the pitch is our post preparing burgers. with grilled vegetables and beef. they pack a protein punch just what the players will need to come out on top at the 2022 world cup. yes, i'm counted on of misty for, for the after long day of exercising your body needs protein. staying a stake, burger with grilled vegetables like this would be ideal for someone like manuel ny post much get on it. of course, his entire team needs to perform well at the tournament place, but i'm sure he will do very well in kind of got excellent players in the team. really teeth out as as good the right kind of diet. i'm sure they'll reach the final with hands are pies, healthy meals, they'll definitely be on the ball. i'm

spending time in this unique artist gallery and wake space and i get to speak to the artist themselves. with me is danny ceiling joined. now danny sealer, i understand that when you started creating art, you were using charcoal, but because of this platform you progressed to using acrylic paint because you assisted with materials and so much more. tell me a bit more about your journey. i found out that i, it gives me like more room for me like to experiment more like with other mediums other than the one that i was accustomed to. yeah. so i have to say to blood on like he played a fair to be called in michael how important is i'd say to you, what does it mean? they are fair. i know it's a deep, clear vision question is interesting enough, but for me is i'd like to really like put if you know, and you'd like,

what is it exactly. but for me, art is laid out. is life. you know, i was, you know, like every, you go, you know, you see ptv, we create ice. yeah, we create arch in on, so we just an ex extension or white already. thank you, danny celia and i really hope you continue to create art that inspires me to borrow a boiler in has created a successful business by following her love was simple and clean to re pieces. let's see how she does it. give us a modern because you where you are very particular about the shoes. you buy the bugs, you buy the hey, you buy. so why not your jury legos phase to bow blurry is one of the few contemporary nigerian jewelry designers that have changed the game by designing modern handcrafted pieces. moving away from the typical chunky style nigeria is known for. i noticed that in our space here nature, a lot of our designs are very heavy and couldn't put noise. there was really

nothing that spoke to every day where and every day you're styling man expressing who you are every day on the street. you know, so that was a lot of the inspiration behind going into this space. she believes in creating pieces that much classic sophistication with a graceful ora. i mean, i had a learning initially, legs on years back boy was just a fun thing to do. like a hobby, you know, because i never thought about making jury before day, you know, just like your regular person that does wardrobe because hey, you know, it was nice and i like it. the founder of the brand is a graduate of computer science. i went on to study jewelry design after her mom showed her how to make some pearl beads, which she found fascinating towards the end of my masters degree in computer science and information systems. i decided to give it a chance. my mom was he foundation from a major aspiration into jewelry make

a she was one actually taught me how to make my 1st piece it was like, wait what i literally just me this been in many minutes away anyway. and it's something that i did. this is a quick sketch of a piece i'm about to make. it's a bypass rings has got a really nice huge dome and the little one next to it. the use of 3 d design is to get a better 3 dimensional look on the julie piece to see if it can make its way into production. my compet aside, bygone are actually coming handy because now doesn't expect of 3 d design and 3 d printing that we're using drew that i also using jewelry before we now move back to traditional methods of manufacturing the jewelry and having the ready made peace that somebody can wear it, so this is actually where all the excitement begins. so actually making the peace and order comes in with what is it comes to peer and just make it happen method zayna

way a doing kind of comes out of view in some fashion. there's a piece of you being expressed in everything that you make, whatever it is. and for me, that would mean am i was in, i like things that are simple and clam clean. honestly, it's exciting. it's fulfilling, you know, making something we know from scratch, which your hand, you know, by yourself and see needs bring somebody else joy. you know, it's a oh, you been wanting this thing and somebody you love buys it for yes, but the gift or a graduation gift. you know, it's that's for, for mental name that some of the d's me inspiration be i now pieces is our client. so how do we make pieces that help them express themselves and don't blend really easy, lia, seamlessly into their lifestyle. i have all the pieces now to put the ring together . so i have the shank, that's the band. the pipes of their anger goes, you know,

until the hand and then. so these are the other parts that the don't to big one. so now i'm gonna assemble it's for saw during put it together. i think i just had it enjoying the whole process more and more and the fact that i can actually create something unique as see something, have an idea and bring it to life. you know, from start to finish initially. any think i was like i'm a person, it just became while firing. seen people look at a piece of like, oh my god, you me day crease. are there any way you as a human being, you know, having an idea, micky, something with your bare hands is seen. the p is the final result. it's i don't know if the flaming white like syfy and, and it's will, will know some degree after done polishing, cleaning, and in clayton, this is what the final piece looks like before we put in the arizona and the resume

comes in the liquid form like this in different colors after that was mix it up point in let his set, let it cure for a king for about 24 to 72 hours. and then when it's done, it looks like this. this is the one in salt and pepper. and it's so amazing and beautiful piece me from start to finish. do bar as choice of using resin gives her design options. it has various coll tentative, allowing her as a designer to create pieces in different colors and shapes with her jewelry, which may not be so easy or affordable to create if using gemstones. i think minimally them as a lifestyle. it's a way of been intentional about what you, where, what you do, what you eat, how you live, you know, things like that. it's a lifestyle that flows across different aspects of a person's life. or in our case, like the modern woman's life, with the global trend of less is more taking

o the design space to barbara has proven that this trend is firmly rooted in the future of african design. i think that's all we had time for today. don't forget to head us out on d w dot com, forward slash asking max for more next time. thanks a lot. j with ah ah, ah, with
