The Witch’s Flight is guided by the question; “What does freedom SOUND like?” Taking heed to this, amapiano becomes a portal and a sonic guide to diverse freedom dreams. The Witch’s Flight is the quest for a Black feminist sensibility structured in a series of sonic experimentations that center South Africa and the larger African diaspora.

On this month’s episode, Zama is joined by special guest Fiyin Koko Tunde-Onadele for an interview.

Fiyin Koko Tunde-Onadele (b.1994) is a multidisciplinary Nigerian artist who developed a passion for art from a young age, inspired by watching her mother paint. This early influence spurred her natural talent, leading her to become a self-taught artist. Her work over the years reflects a deep engagement with womanism, her personal dreams, and her ongoing interactions with women.

Fiyin’s art is grounded in six central pillars: womanism, conversation, body positivity, movement, love, and femininity. These themes serve as a lens through which she examines the resilience of women, often with a delicate yet humor-infused approach. In addition to exploring these concepts, her work critically addresses women’s social issues, drawing attention to the complexities of their lived experiences.

By blending elements of fantasy, the color blue, activism, and storytelling, Fiyin uses diverse mediums — including mixed media paintings, sculpture, photography, and digital illustrations, in her artistic practice to foster connection and raise awareness, ensuring her audience is both moved by her storytelling and attuned to the social issues embedded within her work.
