Spitalfields
Yaaya attended Africa @ Spitalfields on Saturday 27th May, to experience a celebration of the Motherland in the heart of the City! The day catered to both young and old, with a variety of activities such as african drumming, storytelling, dance and singing.
Here, we met talented vendors who used the day to showcase their products and creative skills. Check them out below!
Azawala is a unique contemporary arts company that promotes and supports the talents of up-and-coming African artists. Based in the UK, Netherlands and Ghana, they work together with aspiring African artists to bring greater exposure to their work at various exhibitions. We were particularly drawn to the striking portrait of Nelson Mandela, and the colourful painting of a black women playing the piano.
ARTsisTIC is a company that makes unique woven portraits and beautiful ornaments with intricate embroidery. Yaaya was drawn to this stall, as the woven images presented a stunning way of capturing the beauty of the African landscape and people.
Stay tuned for our next post on Sunday 2nd June, which features the fashion designers and cosmeticians that caught our eye at Africa @ Spitalfields!
