But 1st, we embark on a journey from rwanda to cape town, following a Fashion Designer who is transformed his struggles into a closing label muscle. Myra. We take a ride with the underground skate boarding community inputs on us who hope to smash stigma is a bounce. This forth then we help those 2 leg goes to meet the toilet. I get in and, and interior design. I know with the unique i for changing the ordinary into extraordinary. I found them tango and youre watching a free mag, the across countries and cultures. These one thing we all have in common music, it has the pallets, it connects us in the most profound way. Loved the own, is a canyon musician with the goal of sharing her heritage. With the music from her traditional instrument v o 2 are being a female, a router player, not d oh miss has broken gen, the battery has been transformed the role of these for additional instruments in the canyon music scene. When i started to play a role to is actually actual given for me. So i went to a music school of local school and i didnt make it to the extra class. I was put in a special ed program called wrote talent. My voice is a bit africanized, i think they wanted some kind of thinking which i didnt have. I didnt have that skills. So they told me to maybe find an instrument to comfort him and my wife. And i talked to my uncle who is a musician as well. And he said that he suggested that i play a conditional instrument and i came across 2 instruments. I came across the door to to and when i learned that order to is only played by man, i said, you know what, this is a great idea. This is the instrument that i want to play over to is a traditional stringed instrument from the legal community. Of kenya and loved. This is a to pioneer in many ways the thing that came across the most was meeting people who didnt understand why i was playing the instrument as a woman. I got insulted one at the show and i had to fuck up. So now we, i had class to do, and were just about to start recording. The giving thats very especially with the lab d is maybe she can put the music whenever we go into a session. She can speak to in regards to like, i didnt do high music q, theres a traditional instrument. I d o 2 creek is very special too. Huh. Shes one of the few. I to think kenya, who uses high traditional instrument. I can say you can pay is another instrument like i get uh because now even like very sheet security is the very defense. So thats the best place you heard of it though, right here depending. But if you want to be creative, feel free and the page gets higher, the closer you go to the page as you can see and displayed with the fingers. Oh, i want a little kid from wherever to be like, i want to play a little to my you, my younger siblings. Wonderful to, to really use i think about pride and african ownership to go to was an instrument that was played in different times. For example, have asked and the was the thing about traditional instruments is that the or functional we did not sit down and write songs about flowers growing. There was only that process and most likely start by no tool was played by man. And in just these to do this thing called rock rock, in my community and back rockies is place. So the place somebody or make fun of them the sounds that are indigenous to traditional music. I mean, span by instruments less talk from there, for example, to the addition of what the vocals sounds like, what the voice sounds like. So once you, once you start looking at kind of music from that point, you realize thats, thats the call of everything. What i love about to, to, is that i play the way i want, how my feet would play it, you know, and thats its own thing the to, to on innovative approach to over to love the only shes helping to preserve and promote can use reached Cultural Heritage was also inspiring a new generation of musicians to explore the roots and create and so so this one is about friendship. And sometimes those ties make it difficult to make friends as an adult. Before you leave calls on who have to 6 people out and like i want to be a plan. Thats what this is. The, what i want to achieve is to do what i like. Not to have to conform to a style of music that i dont like what style of branding, but i dont like just to get enough money to live the way i want. I hope at the end of each phone, i inspire enough people to take off traditional instruments. But this is a key to what im doing now. And more so goes. But in general, the young people to take up these instruments because thats across today, the music, nobody has transformed on route to, into a mod, done to for self expression. I love the vague tend to vary is in music is one of the few female players all spe, route to so creative freedom and passion inspires many showing a transformative power of music. The womens living heritage monument is a tribute to women in various fields symbolizing equality and empowerment. I am now joined by d. U t.

Although the session is always at the hearts of youth, creative teeth, as can be seen at the unveiling all these late to sculpture.

It was a collection that was made in on those who came before us in yellowstone tool was part of the International Public on festival in k town and will be exhibited in the Company Gardens for 2 years. Im just showing the gratitude towards those who worked as before, the very close to the up to date, clicking on the q on co html reading. Hes slated to be ancestors provides insight into the artist and these work. Now more than eva, we seek for your guidance and disease done so that we can continue to be on the Strong Foundation you have laid before those 2 years old. When we 1st left through and we were forced to feed the country to, to the tri city that we all know that opinion. And 1994 up to the age of 7 boys and rick. And to came off of a they genocides who went back home. But of course there was a lot of troll model of tensions after 5 years and no one, the youngest mother decided to send him overland to join his brother. In cape town. I was 12 when i left, as a much alone. By the time i go to i was 13 states wasnt any bit less than to almost say. The majority of west spin fabric sold across africa originate in europe. Same youngblood decided to design his own take stealth towing inspiration from his experiences. Ill do research from the country that ive lived in the people that ive met and incorporate all of that, even though utilizing the symbols in the rooms home, you know, in gun uh its a symbol if you mail, it shows that and you can be as tough as apple or rim for this one, the credit uh for a test period. You know, so a small, like the positive guy does home, the local that of designed. It shows the coverage within the shopping in the teeth. Of the wire is it shows the constitutions and then its has like the tickets and you know, the fit. I kind of like uh, we need to always think for wisdom when im designing, i always thought to the end in mind. And then visualize that. I do a lot of for king in the city, taking as much as i can, the movement of People Defense flying events, guides me to gifted fee flowing movement that i always try to incorporate in my designing. Nicole, my brain must sum up, which comes from with a model must, if it runs in saying that saves something from nothing old victim was intended. It is very much metaphorically. But what it you present to me and for me is to pray. What is people who grew up in places like me who never had voice is so im being that shield invent voice so that people can find the coverage to me through my creation. Its been a very traumatic jenny, but a look to be on that to be on board as was more of a photographic installation performance in the expansion of my story tenant. And kind of what happens. You know, when one is migrate to to get those who comes in healthcare to give those will comes in take from you. The danger is also most importantly the lessons you brave enough to look on the other side. And then we had this cop chose code for us up to this time a travel which was more of like we could be rooted in our home africa and trying to make it the best that we can make it. The function is more about story then clothing function is the motion and passion in your most recent collection at cape town fashion week, silence the guns is we storytelling needs. Activism was calling out all the generation to say no tweet inputs and to a to, to the guns to the violence, to the killing. Its cost basically the copeland icing one another cuz we have more than just the was the color used to very, very gentle looking at the or we should look a new and green, you know, and also us to process to maybe to re bid traumatized. And in the us and soften it into the soft light pill. When i took the function and not everyone rejected my voice ever and said that i was too colorful too bold, too loud. But now the whole world is fine, at least sending and accepting my voice and my messages. And i mean shooting such moments through struggle and pain, passion, and creativity are important nimble muscle. Myra has showed us that our life denise has the power to inspire great things. I am now joined by 2 piece on which side of the project direct phone now will roof as a director for the beautiful things exhibition here at the women living heritage monument. So be so thank you for joining us. What is the root contemporary arch project . Logo is a project that was conceptualize 11 years ago and the name of it means im a c u and acknowledge you for who you. Uh, its a case study name. And the reason why we actually initiated the project with the department of ethan codes plus based on the, the public attacks that are happening inside of africa then, you know, and my experience of targeting the content and that its actually not just so that she can issue the continental issue that we need to know, i know that she says a and im accepting each other for who we are as africans and we use the medium or be sure to showcase the best of african contemporary turing. I should come in. Thank you so much for giving us an insight into this beautiful excavation and for your time, skateboarding has always been a sport for misfits and our costs in africa. It is still a small and underground activity, but it was couple roni puts one a was sounds good, tyler, c, g a is working to chase perspective. And to show that skateboarding is not just an escape for hooligans, but father alive, listen. This is not just about having fun with a wooden toward this is about life goals. I hope that the on the of you know, let me pick this. Getting seeing here is quite small. Nobody knows about is like from outside of the country. So, built upon myself to show the world you know, see what exists here is not california, its habit on a bus. One of my name is and if i could tell i think ok and photographer, but im looking for a 10 bucks. One of the skate board in community is still small. There are no brand sponsorships or major lead contests and no state parks. All right, now we and how about and about so i know, yeah, thats part of the as the, hes comfortable with getting here every week. So its a cost for us to go out out there in the streets because because of security. So was gonna change the way. So this place is like a safe space for us. People not they dont really understand what skating is because to them this thing as, as little ruffles. This is also something does kept us out of problems skating for me. So even for music, like in this game, in bed, things. Yeah. You can get on good people with an easy way to static. So this i mean is like this mix of blessings Walking Around like that company. That thing. So i what i like most about skating is just the peasant veterans. Yeah. That comes with a like trying trying again. Its just like a life lesson based. In this case, the numbers going slow. You make sure you are right now. My hope is to see more is be aware of a more skita village coming through the scheme of photography. 2016 and i moved to cape town to study photography of city of austin to college. And um, i mean, the main reason why i started photography it was to, to document the skateboarding scene and how, what on being an ex state or himself, most soco knows how to get the best shot. Then the hard work has paid off. His pictures had been featured in various skater and International Magazines box, so to escape photography then what size and part of about is i get to like, i only have to take like the over again until i get it right. Lesson was when someones in on about it because you know, the skate a might not be the photo might not look good too. So then i have to take the photo again. You just need to have good composition and a good i. And also, the most important thing that you need to have is their own style. Do. Masako also works for a nigerian skate shop, crucial for the community. Their whole said me one day of you know, let me pick and theyll be different. Skin fox around the country way to kind of like pick up the boards and start investigating. And i feel like, because he knows cade scathing of as it has helped me to stay out of trouble. And it has really given me like a tree of cost and like if it didnt help me to like, really raise Different Things and can go outside my comfort zone. Its not just pictures and its not just a hobby. Its about showing that skateboarding can be the keys and managing many of lives, ups, and downs. The. We can all learn something from the skate for. It is not about how many times you full it is about getting us and trying to gain. Interior design is an off form. We lays for homes, offices, or commercial spaces total. Uh, i guess, really an interior designer from lake or is dedicated to transforming ordinary spaces into sustainable centuries. The spaces we inhabit have a profound impact on all well being tele, accumulate a legal space, interior designer transforms ordinary spaces into exceptional and sustainable centuries that put them on balance and harmony with this is hello. Oh, seen people interact to the space on the completion. What do you think of a factory or something where everything is watching and how many . So i think its just important that you really considering the way the place is used. And i mean, sometimes people dont really want that. So how many might be the thing, you know, you know, each 3 and the color rate is like, you know, the metal mixing companies have to think about, you know, that, but i think we really follow the brief of the clients if thats what theyre looking for. Thats what were going to give them, but its not always the case that how many is the end result . Basically working in the Investment Banking sector for over 60 years in the u. K. Moved back home to legal to stop working in the interior design space. So this is one of our projects, and we have custody of how this will give us as a study in son kitchen for the, for the full into this corner test. Obviously for a young couple who obviously quite in session to expose the trouble quite to know the interest of health and fitness and agree to affect the best options in the house to accumulate is a story. A spaces. Cheese is the passion for collecting oswick and fees, the empty spaces that seems pretty intense into contemporary, residential and commercial spaces. So we do a lot of them until projects and also almost positive projects. So a lot of time at this time because it might be like the feeling of space that might be an interest john to american best jobs. So this is chapter one, the restaurants that we designed on legal fact you have the basis to have, even though its an engine restaurant, they wanted something, but its of fresh and contemporary. We need to restaurant design. We have to think about the weight of a chair and these chairs. Um, well actually we bought them in from a Company Called down form. Its just kind of even company pretend to have quite a few events in here. So you have to to move the tables. Its important that you can set up the day to afternoon evening i think with, with dont because of multiple let unless i take we have that effect going on. These ration is like a big mountain pulse of lots of different facets depending on what were doing. So sometimes that in spicy, but of course web based here was by what we see around us 5 by off that we see onto the big probably about design. Flossing, we kind of fill it brings into the page and not see it big that since every space. So the commission for those places are watching, you know, to creating frequency living spaces. Toler recently opened an art gallery in lake austin to further promote my gear in an african. Okay, so this is um, so its a gallery out of town having a question on by offending on autism. Hes actually a mazda 5 of us, its a great one to have him showcase as well as the gallery. And then this piece here is by random from jamaica. Cool down a Little National bush. Oh. And they can see that absolutely stunning piece. So these web presence represent him as well as gallery. I think it was about 56 years ago we started our platform called i design out, which was us to really encourage people to stop having an interest in you know, what we have looks like we have amazing office lunch here. Thats super talented. Its all the odd that sits toilet apart and to being inspired by the clients in such a way that the spaces she creates, reflects the individuality of each inhabitant, stable materials. I mean, the bamboo comes into quite a little play. This is actually, you know, a tool which is the mitchell, and weve actually just sort of a big purpose device and number of see if capital is way over the way. Nice and just sort of done the bumpers, chips over it. Um, some of we actually started to take, integrate my business logic, a heated as a concept of this and im supposed to be developed. And so yes, its a great way to sort of, you know, up cycle. Im an old old basically isnt to design his office always best to get us on board when you get the architect got to go. Didnt realize that, but its actually best in terms of the Space Planning to becoming really early on and making sure that the, the space really functions as well as it should for the use as a bit of tile, the office. So restaurant or home that does that, she maximum function i did. Thats like probably the most important thing. Paula is not just an interior designer. Shes an artist who takes inspiration from the unique personalities in need of her clients to create a better and sustainable future. Thats all we had and still for you today.
