Artist and Black Is King/Brown Skin Girl director, Jenn Nkiru:“I love Peckham like Spike Lee loves Brooklyn – even beyond that personal level though… we really wanted to have a diasporic conversation with this piece, and so it was really thinking about [and] understanding Africa as the motherland of humanity – but also how do we look at the diaspora? Things were being shot in Belgium, things were being shot in London, things were being shot in South Africa, things were being shot in LA, so we were really thinking about all of the different spaces we were, where we had the presence of Black people.”The filmmaker has worked with Beyonce’ and Parkwood on numerous video projects including “APESHIT” and Ivy Park. Black Is King was released one month ago. -- source link
