Koki Nakano. Oceanic Feeling. 2023

Dancer Aimilios Arapoglou.

Directed by Benjamin Seroussi . Choreographed by Damien Jalet

Kokoroko present their first-ever official music video, a beautiful short film soundtracked by ‘Ewà Inú,’ 'Home’, and 'Age of Ascent’ from the band’s debut album ‘Could We Be More’ [reL: August 2022 on Brownswood Recordings]. 

The film is directed by the multi-disciplined filmmaker, writer & video artist, Akinola Davies Jr. It re-imagines the music as a soundtrack to a triptych of interconnected stories set in Makoko [sometimes known as the Venice of Africa], a community originally settled by fishermen, excluded from official census records, and under threat of demotion.

Edith Dekyndt, Ombre indigène Part. 2, Ile de la Martinique, 

Video projection, 16/9, 34’17”, on a loop. 2014

A flag made of hair was stuck in the ground and filmed on top of rocks on the Diamant coast, in Martinique. There, precisely, on the night of 8 April 1830, a clandestine slave boat transporting a hundred African captives washed up on the rocks before being entirely destroyed.
