EMERGING FUTURE
We are paying close attention to the artist whose work signals where culture is moving next.
The cover traces artists in the middle of becoming, while the work is still forming, mutating, searching for its final shape.

Thereās a way some people move through culture, not chasing it, not gatekeeping it, but holding it long enough to understand what itās becoming.
Yemi Osokoya and Faith OT Okoh have been in that position for years. Together, theyāve built A Myth From Da Future, a multidisciplinary platform working across an editorial magazine, film and video, and a public gathering series, Town Square.
For our first issue, #TheCarriers, we sat with Yemi (Founder & Artistic Director), Faith (Creative Partner & Chief Editor), and Chidera Nwobodo (Project Manager) to trace the thinking behind Da Myth and what this platform could mean for da representation of African creatives.

A mark for what we are building, a point of entry into something already unfolding.
This is not where it begins.
This is where it becomes visible.
Official logo launch for
A Myth From da Future.
Meticulously designed by @yemiosokoya , it speaks to process over polish, presence over perfection; a form still taking shape in real time, held with focus, but not rigidity.
This is a mark for the work, the people, and the stories we are telling.
Stay with us! The future is here!
I am incredibly humbled, blessed, and appreciative of everyone who showed up to make this gathering a truly special and memorable event.
Gratitude to all the guest artist who graced and shared with us.
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart!
Especially feeling blessed to part of a great community āØš”
