In this episode, Javier Proenza speaks with South African interdisciplinary artist Azole Njengele, an MFA candidate at Otis College of Art and Design, about the relationship between architecture, drawing, and photography in her evolving practice. Reflecting on her education and professional experience in South Africa before relocating to the United States, Azole discusses how architectural training continues to shape her understanding of space, image-making, and artistic process.
Their conversation explores contemporary photography, portraiture, consent and ethics, South Africa's art communities, and the differences between artistic life in Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Los Angeles. They also consider the practical realities of sustaining a creative practice, the opportunities afforded by graduate study, and the role of observation, collaboration, and interdisciplinary thinking in contemporary art.
