Music Feature: JOJO ABOT
The Ghanaian-born Los Angeles-based creator JOJO ABOT is a woman of many talents. Engaging with everything from music, visual art, film, photography, poetry, fashion and performance art, JOJO ABOT’s body of work gets to the root of the African spirit and highlights the need to connect with the divine forces operating within us all. Her unique Afrohynosonic sound serves both as a tribute to her native Ghana as well as a link to the divine, with punchy basslines and catchy percussion serving as the vessel to deliver her potent and socially charged lyrics. Her music explores everything from a woman’s right to choose, to the impact of the white man on African peoples, to healing the collective consciousness - which caught the attention of many around the globe including musical legends Ms. Lauryn Hill, Common, and Ebo Taylor.
“Flare” Directed by Borbala Szelei
The ethereal short film, Flare, invites you into a world in which female bodies have a voice. By letting the body speak, we embrace its beauty, vulnerability, diversity and powerful sensuality. Produced by an all women-identifying team with the mission of supporting women in falling in love with their physical selves, we want women to embrace the beautiful imperfections and enchantments of their own ‘normal’ bodies.
