Listen "2.5. Tapiwa Matsinde: Zimbabwe. England"
Episode Synopsis
Tapiwa Matsinde is an author, an independent curator, a content creator, a design consultant and design business mentor. Storytelling is at the heart of what she does. She draws a lot of inspiration from her Zimbabwean heritage and the rich and diverse cultural heritage from the African continent and African diaspora. Her practice is focused on shining a light on designers, artisans and creatives who are underrepresented in the creative industries in Africa and the African diaspora. She shares their stories, and helps them tell their own stories through her award-winning platform atelier 55; that started as a blog and has evolved into an invaluable resource in telling African design stories. She also hosts a podcast called " Behind The Design" where she engages in insightful conversations with designers and creatives from Africa.Books: Contemporary Design Africa, ifa-Pure Gold, Fashion Illustration Africahttps://www.atelier55design.com/Instagram: @atelier55designwww.tapiwamatsinde.com Support the showInstagram: @myafricanaesthetic Website: https://www.myafricanaesthetic.com/
