Episode description

“As a visual artist I really think that I’m most inspired by composers…In my practice, I try to take a few notes that you don't normally recognize as being blended and create a new chord.” - Binta Ayofemi

Visual artist Binta Ayofemi creates urban forms inspired by Black abstraction, transforming overlooked spaces through sound, movement, and material. In this charming episode, Binta shares with us her artistic journey, the rehearsal of everyday spaces to create radical possibility and imagination, and her work to celebrate Afro-indigineous spaces and rituals of celebration and healing.
