Les mer Africa Basel Fountain Talks

Candid conversations with artists, curators, and cultural workers shaping contemporary art across Africa and its diaspora. Each episode dives into process, materiality, memory, healing, and the ecosystems that help art circulate—from studio experiments and “soft structures” to sculptural knots, curating, and mediation across borders. Expect generous studio wisdom, practical pathways, and grounded, world-building conversations for anyone making culture today.

episode Natasha Evans in conversation with Elisa da Costa cover

Natasha Evans in conversation with Elisa da Costa

Artist Natasha Evans sits down with conversation partner Elisa da Costa to unpack a tactile practice that fuses fragmented textiles, acrylic and ink with vessels woven from fabric, copper wire and red oxide. In malachite-toned “soft structures,” Evans probes polarity—soft/hard, seen/unseen—through layered processes that conceal as much as they reveal. Prompted by da Costa, she traces a path from illustration studies in Bournemouth to building an independent studio in Lusaka, balancing commissions and a framing business while pushing toward large-scale installations, residencies and deeper material experimentation. Together they map Zambia’s art ecosystem—scarce spaces, DIY networks and the need for curatorial support—while circling themes of belonging, memory and transformation.

Helen Nzete in conversation with Dillon Jerry Mugume

Nigerian sculptor and mixed-media artist Helen Nzete joins Dillon Jerry Mugume for a warm, lounge-style exchange on materiality, healing, and artistic autonomy. Nzete traces her path from studio life in Abuja to immersive works that fuse papier-mâché, plaster, rope and painted glass. She unpacks pieces like “Entangled Cells,” about the hard conversations we have with ourselves, and her series “Year of Knots,” where rope becomes a metaphor for childhood trauma and the urgent work of untying generational patterns.  Conversations drift through gardens, bees, and a moment of communion with a tree—nature as listener and amplifier—before widening to education (Zaria’s legacy and the right to rebel), labels (“African artist” as embraced identity), and social healing. Mentoring an autistic student has taught her patience and a newfound taste for detail, sharpening both process and purpose. Recorded live with audience prompts, this candid talk maps an artist’s belief in curiosity, courage, and community.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
