Desertion : A Collaboration

Photos taken by Gabriella Achadinha in Cape Town.

Desertion is defined as a state of being absent without letting anyone know. A sense of wanting to get away to be on your own.
This is what I feel when I look at the beautiful scenery in the photographs. A hidden paradise where we adventured wearing my tribal print. A secret far away place to be creative.

I have always wanted to do a collaboration with my sister,  someone who I think complements my being more than anynody else.

 

This photo series is inspired by our unusual closeness besides our vast differences (she being the scientist and me the writer), this is also an appreciation post, to all my sisters and your sisters who continue to build you. We need more relationships like this and I realise how lucky I am to have a sister like Fikile. I am forever bound to her, just as I am to my African Tswana heritage which you get a hint of in the colour of the fabric.

Music - Petite Noir - Best (Official Video)

My friends make a cameo in what I would call a breakthrough for South Africa in terms of music and creativity. A hauntingly beautiful mix of Afrofuterism and cool. Beautiful.
