The theme for the 3rd edition of KAFART is cultural exchange: the intersection. It seeks to celebrate our cultural similarities in Sahel Africa where we can re-embrace a ‘borderless’ ideology through fashion and art.
Simple exchanges can break down walls between us only when we gather, engage one another and share common experiences as Africans, will we recognize our similarities and differences, thereby promoting humanity.
The Intersection was borne out of real events that have revealed the disconnect we are currently experiencing, there’s so much we don’t know about one another in terms of our cultures, beliefs and values. We want to keep positioning the fashion and arts as channels ‘that’ reignite our connection as Africans.
Together, we can reimagine our future and redefine our past by embracing agelong practices as they fit in our world today.
