Hello Everyone! I went to Senegal for 6 months and have shared all my adventures via Instagram stories at the time.

So, I recently created a Tiktok account b/c close friends encouraged me. Now, I decided that I will reshare all my adventures on TikTok as well - 1) because I created so much content 2) I can use the TikTok content as a capsule for a lot of context and information and 3) I can consistently post on the app while learning how the application works and how the people react to my content.

I would love for you to support me w/ a follow on Instagram and TikTok @senegalesetwisted. Especially if you are interested in Senegal, want to travel to Senegal or just are interested in the content/me. If you have any questions about Senegal, definitely ask away too. I will from time to time post some of the content here too.

♥️♥️

Makouvia Kokou Ferdinand: Henrike Grohs Art Award 2018 nominee

Em’kal Eyongakpa (Cameroon), Georgina Maxim (Zimbabwe) and Makouovia Kokou Ferdinand (Togo) have been shortlisted for the first Henrike Grohs Art Award, conceived by the Goethe-Institut and the Grohs family. The winner will be announced on 6 March and awarded on 13 March in Abidjan.

Em’kal Eyongakpa is an intermedia artist who approaches the experienced, the unknown, as well as collective histories through a ritual use of repetition and transformation. His recent ideas draw from indigenous knowledge systems and aesthetics, ethnobotany, applied mycology as well as technology.

Georgina Maxim’s work combines weaving, stitch work and the utilisation of found textiles creating objects that evade definition. The dresses are deconstructed, and at times reconstructed to find new ways of giving tribute to and reflection upon the person that owned the original garment.

In Makouvia Kokou Ferdinand’s sculptural and performance work, he plays with borders and mixes memories, materials and cultural references. Building on traditional Mina culture, his gaze on contemporary society is unique, sometimes ironic and often moving.

The Henrike Grohs Art Award is a biennial prize dedicated to artists who are living and working in Africa and practicing in the field of visual arts. It recognises the lifetime achievements of the former Head of the Goethe-Institut in Abidjan, Henrike Grohs, who was killed on 13 March 2016 in a terrorist attack in Grand-Bassam, Côte d’Ivoire.

The prize “aims at strengthening artists and encouraging them in their quest for a world of togetherness and dialogue”, said jury members Koyo Kouoh (Artistic Director, RAW Material Company, Dakar), Laurence Bonvin (artist and representative of the Grohs family, Berlin), Raphael Chikukwa (Chief Curator, National Gallery of Zimbabwe, Harare) and Simon Njami (Curator, Paris).
