I enjoyed this quite a lot – both the music and the video. Lisa-Kaindé Diaz and Naomi Diaz are twin sisters, and together, they make music as Ibeyi. The duo were born in France but lived in Havana for the first two years of their lives. As daughters of Buena Vista Social Club percussionist Anga Díaz, the sisters often visited Cuba yearly on holiday, but were primarily raised in Paris, where they currently reside.
Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!
