“EMPTY YOUR MIND,
BE FORMLESS. SHAPELESS,
LIKE WATER”
During the African Designers for Tomorrow jury, it was fascinating to see how young African designers, supervised and mentored by Waridi, incorporate their traditions in their work.
Africa is in a creative evolution, and through Daniele and Waridi eyes “Mtindo Book”, you can see how the new generation stands out and wants to show the beauty of this continent. Designers, artists, and all those people with a creative vision have a unique imagination, which is what is so special about scouting in Africa.
With Mtindo - Rebranding Africa, the photographer Daniele Tamagi and Waridi Schrobsdorff provide a closer and more compelling view of fashion in Waridi's native country Kenya. Meet the Style Movers- young personalities at home in the arts, media, and digital world. See the creations of a new generation of designers. And understand why they all believe Africa is now.
Waridi is more than a mentor - she is a guide back home to yourself. She fine tunes and polishes the talents that already exist, reminding you your essence is enough which is a critical realisation for any creative in the industry. After her training I feel prepared and confident enough to walk into any opportunity, whether it be as a model, actress, or creative business professional. (Not to mentioned I booked my first acting job after 3 sessions together).
