I consider Timescapes like paintings. Each sound each song represents a different colour, a different brush stroke. Timescapes paint a picture.
Timescapes explore dimensions of time using sound to imagine and reimagine. Timescapes extend, bend, explore and recreate time and memories (events in time).
Timescapes are rooted in my experience living and working as an artist in Africa. On a Timeline, Africa marks a significant period in my life. It is the place from which i observe the past, present and future and continue the transformation of myself into the artist Dj Afifa Aza.
Each Timescape contains artwork. Artwork adds flavour to your listening. The artwork comes from different series of digital photography that i create.
Some Timescapes form part of a special series, where i will be exploring a specific idea.
“Give thanks for life
counting these moments
every second
so memorable
with you Africa
I love you always and forever
I had many experiences in Africa. Seeing Senegal, Seeing Ghana living for almost two years in the Gambia. I learnt to appreciate the small things about being in the place I know I am from. The colour of the sky, the seasons, the heat, the rain, the breeze, the nature. How people would do the things that they do. I wouldn’t say that Bakau feels like the place my ancestors came from but there is something about being in Africa I appreciate. It is the small things, those moments I don’t want to forget.”
