Cut to future shock

Noumeda was born in Paris to an Indian-French mother and an Italian father. She now lives and works in Florence, Italy. ‘I attended the Diploma of Istituto d’Arte di Firenze on Arti Grafiche with a specialization in illustration and engraving. I’ve studied a variety of fields – from video to photography and contemporary dance – and I’ve collaborated with an active independent group of artists – dancers, videomakers, musicians, and digital artists. I work with pencil, ink, watercolour, photographs, gold pigment, and sometimes I mix hand drawing with computer technique. I like errors, the small surprises between lines’. [see also Violet Banks]

Black Emperor. We asked them about their favourite music and they started with The Smiths song, Ask [listen below] ‘I saw them playing live on Italian TV. It was during the 80s when I was extremely young, and I’ve never stopped listening to this song’. Read the rest of Crimea X’s Secret Playlist.
