Biography
I refuse to be pigeonholed. I am a multihyphenate. One part transdisciplinary designer, one part artist, one part visual storyteller, one part academic, and several parts insatiably curious. Currently based in Berlin, I am a Johannesburg-born creative with an enduring love affair with cities; The soul encased in the concrete and asphalt; the heartbeat provided by the thrum of daily life. My mantra is: be BEFOK... Not Gefok. Befok: Afrikaans slang means really cool, crazy, stupid or a combination of all of the above. Gefok: fucked up. BEFOK exists in a contested space. Like the language, it stems from BEFOK is unmoored. Something that belongs neither in Africa where it was born nor in Europe where it finds its roots. Current explorations: speculative cultural futures as humanity evolves and adapts — especially in response to migration and climate change; The concept of truth and its amorphous nature; avenues for the hybridisation of print and digital media.
