68. Douglas Condzo

Douglas Condzo is a visual artist whose striking art provokes a visceral response in the eye of the beholder it also taps into the humble and quiet personality of this true aesthete. We got him speaking on the different roads and choices that took him from music to where he is now. He took a deep dive and described how the journey of his street photography led him to short film festivals, to art exhibitions in various galleries in Mozambique and abroad, and he also explained to us how he manages to keep growing and evolving as an artist.

Paulo Chibanga is an innovative entrepreneur who uses deep family values as the underlying foundation for all his work. He transcends the ordinal scale with his never-stop learning mentality. From 3 de Fevereiro school to Jo'burg and then the world, he told us about how his music journey started and how it morphed into what it is today. How 340ml came to be and how AzGo Festival first editions didn't break even. An episode full of exciting stories, lessons to live by, and much more.

Maxh is a YouTuber with a unique sense of humour and uncomparable clout. His skits present a profoundly personal and comical perspective on a wide range of social phenomena. In a genuinely conversational way, he gave us an insight into how he lives off YouTube and explained how he withdraws the money sent from it—deconstructed the taboo of being a Mozambican YouTuber and how that affected his relationship with his father for a few years. We explored some of his side projects and what can we expect from him in the future.

 

Ricardo Pereira is an Environment and Renewable Energy Expert. With a community-based approach and innovative solutions, his work's mission shines a bright light of hope on improving the ecosystems and livelihood of many. Our conversation with Ricardo ranged from how he stumbled into his environmental degree, the wonders of Kenya, being held hostage in Bolivia by a group of kidnappers, and how Africa's solution is in our hands. We had loads of fun with this Mozambican pan-African.

Mafalda is an artist who is on a journey of self-discovery. Her work is one of the mediums she uses to explore emotions concerning her identity. In a very poetic way, the unspoken bond with her ancestors depicted in her art leaves us in awe. From fashion to fine art prints, connecting the dots on her voyage to the down under, we spoke about her African heritage and how it influences her, how she got her work in London galleries, the unlikely collaboration with A$AP Mob and much more.
