and expose the story behind the common mosque hero macs. in 60 minutes on d w. a scoring do we say they were about giving up sports like every weekend on d. w. those kinds of phase of space as one of africa, the largest art gallery has been synonymous with putting boundaries, an odds and design the evarado. read. i get to read the pros, but location to bring you i think is best in fashion. put todd and design. we find out how the citizens around the cow has become the monica of

a young woman here. and we also travel to london and then how and i fear and design brightens up public spaces. i'm and it's, um, it's a and this is abby megs. oh, a. the prize and telephone congo material comprises of anything from illustration to abstract originating from east africa, the fabric is culturally significant and was often given a woman on this occasion. fashion design, i read must be got as a model that kind of telling a compelling story through her. she creation i just look at nature, nature, never. can i be yellow? can i grow a bit taller?

you know, so it's just like the universe decides in nature during my sheeka is one of the most recognizable residents of the island of zanzibar profession. brand of the same name is inspired by for healy culture and the sights and sounds of this beautiful island that she calls home loans and some today i will buy a sample. i love them maybe tomorrow or the day after. i can come and pick the rest . i decided to set the chic in the hottest towns and because number one, its whole number to its american ford of different cultures. and exactly the way i really draw my inspiration from either from local people or even tourists who visits beautiful island then to buy the land of many contrasts, old and the new traditional and modern coexists side by side and nonchalant hominy . this wonderful island is the perfect backdrop for doings vibrant and colorful

designs. i always look for those 3 thing, history, culture and heritage. and you will see that in our designs, that we use the very famous fabric known as conga congo designs always uses the mode of communication in the past. and even today, you would see that, you know, the congress, as you saw, that you know, some of them are quite fast, you know, and some of them have words of encouragement. for example, the congo that i was actually working on today has something to say about, like, you know, it, talking about, hoping that this will becomes peaceful. that's really sometimes of what the moment we represent africa to the world by assuring that we stay true to the textile and its origin and weights comes from. so for example, you see in our design we keep the wording of the congo and it brings back,

brings the conversation wherever i go. because 1st of all is for hailey and people ask me why do have these words and i tell them what it means in our culture, in that is used as a mode of communication, especially for women. because in from pipes of my society, women can be very vocal. so when you have a message on the congo, it's a way of maybe telling something to your neighbor or to your husband or to your mother in law. dorinda designs fair as signature island feel. they are light breezy and a wash with color and print. they pay bold homage to her african roots. i can tell the story of zanzibar in fashion. so you would see that sometimes we would incorporate some handwork. that is very popular here, you'd find it maybe on the fisherman boss kit. and i also take color with me,

but it also takes the congo print with me and express it where it's on the born and raised in times a near doreen. michigan. lead to spend time in switzerland, studying and working. she is now part of a growing homeward bound african diaspora actually started from switzerland where i used to work in private banking. and i was involved together in a team that was into luxury good. so was already exposed to the design in the west, and we went to milan. i had the child to meet at that time, the creative director of good, she, you know, and all the sessions been okay. let's try and fold this very quick and see what it looks like, because i always like to wear my clothes, like i just stay with short sleeves. it's very hot in volleyball court. the patent mixing part of an expected colors is the most effective part of design effect is to

me it's fun and simple, but i can understand that to others. it's complicated. i would really like to percival inspire more and more people to be very bold and go out there and do what they want. whether is fashion or are. but we would like to make sure that we have a wider footage in the continent. and of course, also around the world, re imagining spaces and turning them into playful, provocative aquatic sash is what a young guy in lori specializes in, inspired by his childhood stories and nigeria andrews. we caught up with them to take a look at his recent lead. to this colorful installation is called implants. we trust the work of british nigerian designer inca laurie can be found in london's mayfair district. he laurie had a mission, but once the tory chris was

a safe space place of let reflection, meditation using plots and green greenery. so, come here, sit down from conversation, reflect, read whatever you want to do, but just been around in our green space. the london and loved working with bright, vibrant colors, his installation called happy street in southwest london, brighton's of a gloomy space under her railway bridge. he wants to bring more positivity to dull urban spaces. when i create an installation in cedar, as it gets my attention that will it, when it goes into space, it does belong to me in what belongs to the people that they are able to kind of, you know, create their own narrative. and they are the fabric of that were, becomes, of the, one of one of the community. and also it kind of gives those people sensors, you know, belonging and all successful proud of their environment. he's produced countless

installations for art galleries and events like this playground for adults during the 2019 kind film festival is always bursting with new ideas. when we look in the public work, you know, just us where my like how is so on and why i love to in most because i get to sort of design and leave it. and then just seen people's reaction to it is quite eager. the son of nigerian immigrants launched his design career in 2011 when he reinvented 2nd hand chairs, giving them a multi colored make over. much of his work is inspired by the stories and west african fabrics from his childhood. retailing is kind of is based around who i am, i think as a kid of always full. i was living with 2 license coaches in a british much urine own and i love both got both with coaches, but how do i celebrate? and i think the best way with me was to do it through furniture. so take those

narratives that i was kind of, you know, told while i was young on and on. i love trying to re tell them in my own way. you can, i jumped up these crockery designs in 2020, during the 1st quarter in a virus lockdown. my obsession of colors is daphne centers been inherited from my mom and dad. i was wondering when my mom, but if she get her inspection, california was oversee from her mom cuz that's been passed on to so mom i've run his passions. me. hello. just yes sir. is something that's just yeah, it makes me for positive and good positive feelings in the urban jungle, whether by day or night in laurie makes london more colorful. and that is something many appreciate the latest addition to the ever odd read gallery is this impressive building. where odd flows over into the streets of jordan,

and he has to meet this mark to find out more about this wonderful me luck. which ought to be to yeah. i and him a venue. easiest name to remember talking to you because yeah, exactly. well, just a slightly bigger picture is the, the way the world works for me contemporary is that sometimes i change and sometimes they find me and when i, and if it's in some strange place between the 2 in there, i've been aware of his work for a long, long time with quite frankly was too nervous of much of the stuff. yeah. yeah. i can understand. i think his subject matter sometimes is extraordinarily tough. and i thought that that was probably an area that would be best undertaken

but of the galleries. but i and decided years ago that no, that wasn't the way it was going to be. he was going to come here. and so finally, towards the end of last year, he said these come to my studio and destro hanging in the studio. ah, and i said in front of it as i still do with the 3 here, and i was rendered speechless. and i said i, i get it completely. you need to show in this building, he wanted to show in circuit circuit. this is aisha structure. it's really good for pushing powerful objects, concentrates to energy on, on central objects on big pictures is why fi to this particular?

why don't i think that ah, not only what we perceive as being a cool, contemporary art or not. art is a, is a window into the soul of any nation or culture. if you look at the ancient greeks, we know how they felt and we know what the aspirations through that ah, the same as with the addictions. we know more about the egyptians through the art that they created by far than any other medium and all the way through the renaissance. we know about the tragedies that fell nations, such as the demise of spain as a world power. because of the artist like el greco, the less because we know what it was like to be

a french person in the court of louis the 14th through the arts of the era. art is more than de cool. art is a very clear window into what the people feel about the country, whether it's the sense of confusion with confidence, authentic pleasure, all of the above shows in the us and in all day the contemporary of south africa. in your opinion, why is it important that space is like this? this is a special building, and we've been careful about the program here. it's not a, it's not a factory where we have short shows, lots of them. exhibitions on for a long time here, and we try and have it as a distilled collection of what we perceive as being the front rank painters and sculptors of this year. so the africa

food, a great atmosphere and cutting its design, what more could one of can use new or hot spots is doing it all and adding kind of us into the mix and then will it take us on the journey to show everything that is experienced take a look. this is definitely the place to be welcome to nairobi, stiff kitchen i located in the heart of kenneth capital, in the western neighborhood. this unique space is much more than just one of the must experience. places in kenya is know ruby, steve kitchen it much is some of the best known she could concept from across the

world into a thoughtfully curated locals and social wouldn't. ruby soup kitchen has done it has brought international food and drink to our doorsteps. not only making it accessible, but also creating a love around international and exotic food options. i am unwilling remarks and obie telling you exactly what the hype is about and why you should be visiting this beautiful. come into the opening in june 2021. this would market over the variety of trees, both for the eyes and the pilot. welcome gave me your name. but before i have the food, i have to take us. they will be still kitchen style. i am now going to meet pfizer who is the general manager. there will be fixed kitchen and also one of the brains behind the conference. so let's go the

unwelcome today. did you think you are making revenue growth? yes, for sure. for me, so far so good. outside. look, cooler. yeah. come to see what's inside. so you were in. what is the market section? now overshoot kitchen is the brainchild and project of $215.00 from now. i will be elliana and lisa, and they had a vision to create something here, and i will be, that was an offering to this vibrant, beautiful color for you that we live in. moving in a less formal direction. so that's why we have 7 different seats with market concepts, which of us so service. so in the, in one sense, it's a way to interact with the people who are talking to you about how we've tried to up cycle recycle, reuse materials, and what we've created in the face. so this all can be we found it behind and go, you know, i'm the courses of getting it. here was another story for another day. the margarita

company is an old volkswagen, but hopes go to an old. my talk to this local is in an old 1950 leyland, but that we food from the industrial side of nairobi. if you see the bars covenant who uses cosette. yet another thing that we have tried to do in the creation of nairobi, she is to make this space and the building more than just food and beverage, but also a platform for the as you come in the space, which is a designated gallery for artists. you can come and hung pictures, i'm thinking this building should be able to develop those things of a space where artists have an opportunity to really feel hungry up to so much need to time to go back to shift that we have our very own specific with the beans, i love the note, the normal p 1st,

it's normally comes in over ship to different that it from the rest of the how long have you done this? by the way, i've been doing pizza for the last 7 years. so for this bit though, we use our our cream close, it's basically got to do some well that i let you do the muscle the bit that takes up to 5 minutes. it will be good. thank you so much for my company to try this. ready enough now we can get this all done. get ready? oh the i don't think i'd like i didn't think i'd like to leave to but after the love is

why i was telling me, i need to definitely do guys my conclusion for in this case it's a visit especially can you like to explore something oh, the great player, right? that's all, brad said auto is not a mirror house after 5 feet, but rather a hammer with which the shape like many of the pieces. yeah. how much this away so south between tradition and the contemporary world through tracking us with most of them to pick thing. the growth strength and transformation of the title of my work is 123 block myself. it comes from again, hide and seek, basically leads to play when lead my maternal grandmother house. my name is call co mass, i'm a sculptor primarily but a multi disciplinary. limpopo born and raised in signing, commerce is

a contemporary artist specializing in sculpture. she depicts religion, culture and identity through her work. from the big tribe, she merges the modern with the traditional and works exclusively through the symbolism of the sacred cow. my name is actually call, hey, know much about my c low birth given name. my mom called me called call when i was younger, so the car port kind of back to me when i was decided i'm going to go in with the call later on, i realize that spelling a, c o, w was a problem because i'm a female and naming myself call even though it had nothing to do with the they're all good. so connotations that i put on the call. nobody could call me back because i was a healthy called in. and the spots on my face didn't matter because cause of body and the size of my family know didn't matter because how the big nose. but it was also my question to reclaim the name and have it as my own. so i fully embody call,

and after doing that, my experience and being in the world, calling myself call, that kind of fizzled into my art making. what stands out for me is this how prominent that is within our practices within the slaughters family gatherings, bringing people together and the most significant being the how the cow is the bridge between the ancestral plane and out through how may 2 forward come as prize to situate herself between tradition and the contemporary world. she creates these is listen, they take that and cultural work to move, combining various fabrics to me. i have been working as an awesome supposedly just and the 10 years now. i think it started off as a longing to be more connected to the culture. so i pulled some very new objects that out from my grandmother's house and things that reminded me of home. and in

essence, reminding me of my culture as well. so we have the same one, which means god knows. and for me, i think that embodies just how powerful the call is within the, within our culture. all my processes are very tapes of. and the meditative pod starts before the actual sculpting or the putting to get off the word. i use a variety of materials. but pacific league synthetic car hides the furious synthetic fibers. in the beginning, it was because i felt that i was removed from a cultural space being a goal that grew up in the suburbs. it felt as if i couldn't use a real cowhide because i'm maybe not as connected to cause as my cousins who lived in the home. now i think that's now this is derek material. so developing into a thing of showing how culture transforms and how it isn't stagnant, even though the potency of it is kept and the ritual of a discount. there is

a change that happens that is developing with the time by exclusively using black and right as a color palate columns to innovate black from negative color perception to take his rightful place as an affirmative color. in my work, i use that a lot. the other for me speaks to a very gender and part of the call. not only does it represent the old providing this of the car and how it all is giving soon with a woman right to always giving always expected to at some stage. this is a new me and i recently started learning how to use when i found out during, during the that my grandmother used to make met using a type of this machine. and somehow it connects me back to my culture and the ways that my grandmother used to do stuff. how the techniques in her works and meditative mrs. are a means of self contemplation, healing and finding

a sense of belonging. her pieces have rich african history. and each piece tells a great story. recently, her modern and contemporary recreations have attract the international market. good. i'm at an i rock sculpture park, where i have displayed the specific work was in response of the title. good neighbors. and what idea of good neighbors is. so what came to me was a memory of my grandmother's house. so with a call comes back again into the idea of the slaughtering. that happens. and the function is happening when your neighbors come around and everybody gathers within the same household. so i have this vision of the cow skin hanging on the, on the washing by and at the back of my grandmother's yard. so for me that was almost as if the skin is capturing the images of the whole environment. and each, each watching binder presents a family and in that way,

representing neighbor plex to each other called mattias work on the part of the realm of existence. the washing lion tend to be quite a public space. there's something interesting and exploring what is a common space versus a private space. in this modern day, my work as well as my physical appearance or dig both tie in together in be its own version of a culture that is told there, but just inspired by culture but also there within itself. most african cultures continue the expression of cultural beliefs through the odds. african i've had played a significant role in shaping the culture and history of the world. how much is getting her work internationally recognize while staying true to her baby? thank you for joining me. as we showcase the latest modern offerings from all over

africa, don't forget to hit us up on social media for more on today. so goodbye. ah, ah ah, ah, ah ah, ah, ah, ah ah.
