South Africa’s FAKA is a performance art duo, or as they call it a cultural
movement
<http://10and5.com/2015/06/29/young-south-africa-faka-your-representation-of-black-queer-identity/>,
based in Johannesburg consisting of Fela Gucci (Thato Ramaisa) and Desire
Marea (Buyani Duma). They have graduated from visual communication and
photography. Theirs work explores (mainly through theirs bodies,
performance and fashion) the role and position of the queer black body.
They also promote young black queer voices
<http://10and5.com/2015/06/29/young-south-africa-faka-your-representation-of-black-queer-identity/>
in current South Africa, because there is not enough visibility of black
trans folk and the view is just through patriarchal/heteronormative gaze,
of course, and more, with South Africa’s apartheid past.
