Last Friday Night provided a rare opportunity for a night of African events, discussions, workshops and music to happen hosted by the Victoria and Albert museum (V&A) in South Kensington London. Getting a remarkable chance to see far too many events happening that night I managed to attend a few events and catch up with some of ADA’s friends and a few new artists and fashionistas we met. Spoke Mathambo (Nthato Mokgata) was performing that night. Even though rainy London weather managed to prevail, he managed to keep the crowd excited listening to his tunes.

Mr Somebody and Mr Nobody

This was an installation created by the South African-born, US-based design team of Heidi Chisholm and Sharon Lombard, offers a visual romp through an eclectic post-colonial landscape. Drawing on immigrant outsider experiences and playfully appropriating cultural icons from either side of the Atlantic, the designers explore cultural constructions, nationality and ex-pat identity.
