better opportunitiesHere in the cityThere's more better opportunitiesIn the northThe art is not really so appreciatedSo here it's much better toYou can do your thing hereAnd then people can appreciateAnd people understand hereWhat kind of art do you do?I'm a visual artistWhat kind of artI mean what kind of artI mean art sometimesPeople use pen to drawSo when I did art at schoolI did every mediumAnd then I decided to do somethingI did a paragraphIt's a new artNow where you burn woodCreating an imageBurningBurn woodYeahNow I understandWhy everybody is talking about youBut heyI mean this brickBut this one is not a brickYeahThis is where we liveWhen you go to the northIn part of NamibiaYou'll find thisThis isI did this at an exhibitionWhere I was selling my goodsSo I went all outAnd I built this in the citySo that everybodyThat from the north could comeAnd just relateYou carried thisNo this was made hereI made it here in VinduNoHow come it ended up in your house?After the exhibitionI brought it hereMy brotherI want you to show meThe kind of art that you doSo maybeYou can take me to your art shopIt's an art shop or work shopIt's homeBut I call it my artWowHomeLet's go check it outYeahWelcomeThis is my beautiful homeAs you can seeWhen you are welcome hereIt's art that welcomes youYou know when the pandemic startedWe started a small businessA food businessA very creative food businessIt's called the food courtThe reason why isI wanted toYou know play aroundWith foodDifferent kind of foodA chef that was hereSo it's still an ongoing businessI nearly askWere you the chef?Actually the funny partWhen I finishedMy visual art courseWhen I graduatedI had nothing to doThat was interestingThen I went to startA cooking schoolAs a cooking schoolBut now I couldn't finishBecause of fundingSo that was my next passionSo with meWhatever I think ofI quickly jump on itThat's amazingThat's why I came upWith the home food courtAfter schoolAfter doing visual arts in schoolYou should have justGo outStart looking for a jobAnd all thatDefinitelyYou start looking for a jobI used to workThen I quit my jobYeahI used to work for three companiesI quit my jobSimply becauseI feltI can do much better on myselfThe salary was not enoughThe salary was okayI should sayBut it didn't give me more freedomThat's why I ended upHaving my own companyAnd then I opened upMy own graphic design agencyHere at homeAnd also I employ a few peopleI employ five graphic designersSo that's how I startedAlso venturing to fashionYeahLet's get itWelcome to my home studioThis is where I createAll the magicThis is where I stayBasicallyYou stay hereI stay hereAnd work hereI work hereSo which means when I wake upQuickly run to the studioGo back to the roomWhat is this?This is a techniqueI was talking aboutPylographyIt's where I transferAn image of someoneOn two woodI createThe frame first of allBy theThe woodAnd I createThe frameAnd then I useA pencilTo justCreate some outlinesYeah a pencilAnd then from thereWe startThe next processWhich is the bendingI useThis deviceSoldering gunStarting ironAnd then I justFor exampleI get this artworkAnd then II just start bendingAs simple asStart bendingStart bendingThe outcome of thatIs simply something like thisYeahWhat?That's the outcome of an imageThis was justThis image is a bitNot clearSo I had to redo it againSo it's quite an easy processBut it takes timeSo what I do isI try and burn dotsCreate dots untilIt's doneJust like thisHow long does it take youTo finish a completeWell this oneProbably takes meTwo days alsoTakes me probably two daysThat depends on the sizeI can go evenMuch biggerDepends on the sizeYeahAnd how many peopleHave you produced this?So far I should sayI've produced for the presidentThe presidentLast yearGave him a giftIt's my friendIt's not the presidentI want to meet himYeahSo yeahI've quite done a lot of workEven in galleriesPublic artSo most of the timeRight nowWhat I'm trying to emphasizeJust to emphasize the artIn the communityBecause I believeIt's not well appreciatedIn our communitiesSo my focus right nowIs to create these platformsAnd give back the communityWhere we haveI go through small lessonsTo the kidsIn the communitiesAnd all thatThat's the transfer of knowledgeTrust usKnowledgeDefinitelyBecause what I believeIn isI need to transfer this knowledgeSo that we have a better futureAnd artIs where the world is right nowWhen you look at the developed countriesIf you're an artist right nowYou could be a multimillionaireYou're trying to say thatAfricans don't embrace artI think we don't appreciate it so wellWe do embrace itBut it's taking timeLooking in our countriesNamibiaIt's taking timeI think it's timeThe world needs to seeAnd come discover thisBut is it expensiveTo get one of thisWellThe reason why I produce this artworkIs as I saidIs to educate peopleBecause art is very expensiveWhen you look atInternational artists and soSo I try to bringA reasonable priceA reasonable priceSo for exampleThis piece in Namibian dollarsNot US dollarsIn a rendA piece like thisIt costs you a thousand dollarsA thousand dollarsIn Namibian dollarsAnd the bigger it goesThe higher the amount goesSo actually I produce artThat I want the people to understandAnd appreciateAnd so that it's affordableFor them to give someoneOr give awayOr something like thatThe fact thatI mean the appreciationFor the actAnd encouragingWhat is that one thingThat keeps you movingI think it's my communityMy communityI feel I have a responsibilityAs an artistI have a voice to give outI have an influenceAnd it's my responsibilityTo show this kind of thingsRight now I knowThere are peopleFive kids looking up to meBut that keeps me going every dayAnd I meet the guysThat are from the streetsWhen I hear the storiesEverydayWhen I hear the peopleFrom the communityWhen I hear a ladyThat wakes up at five o'clockTo go sell cappanaWe have cappanaI don't know if you tried itTo go sell cappanaAnd I have friends thatWhere their parents used toSell fatcakesAnd they made itUniversity through that fundThat motivates me every daySeeing someoneAnd me going to cappanaIn the coldIt's coldIn the cold of windowIt keeps me motivatedLike wowWhy should I sleepWhile I have these opportunities right nowWhy can I not make use of the talentThat I haveAnd share it with the people around
