On the conception of Seen By You, Raven Artson says: "Seen By You was written after realizing the pain experienced by an unanswered love was self-imposed. I found myself in a dark mental place that was both valuable inspiration as damaging insecurity. Lyrically I’m conflicted: “I will come to ask of you: ‘rescue me, before I’m seen by you’”. This song serves as an exploration into my own duality."
"Director Jeroen Dankers created a visually thrilling mystery depicting the birth of me: Raven Artson. Elaborating on the conflict explored in the song, we wrote the story to be multi-interpretable. One such interpretation explains the masochistic fantasy to be sexually dominated by the woman whose love I desire. Soon this dream turns dark, as I obediently cross my borders. In submission I impregnate the woman, who gives birth to our baby in the opening sequence of the video. Realizing what happened, I’m covered in shame head to toe in the second part. Either way I unmistakably wake up in the final seconds of the video, ready for a new chapter."
Raven Artson will perform during the OZSI party at Sexyland on April 26th.

Nifemi Marcus-Bello for Globetrotter Lab
Nifemi Marcus-Bello for Globetrotter Lab
Lagos-based industrial designer and artist Nifemi Marcus-Bello has brought his solo exhibition, “Material Affirmations – ORÍKÌ Acts I–III,” home, following a successful tour across the world. The show also proves to be a hometown favorite and has recently been extended for one week until January 17th, due to popular demand. Revolving around material and identity, “Oríkì” is a look at the past, present, and future through an exploration of bronze, aluminum, and copper. Named after a practice of praise poetry in the Yoruba culture, the show is a labor of love that took Nifemi around three-and-a-half years to complete. Coming back to Nigeria is a full circle moment for Nifemi, who draws from African traditions and finds his inspiration in his family. Speaking with Globetrotter Lab’s Kennedy Ashinze, Nifemi shares his views on the art landscape in Nigeria, his vision for open-source design, and more.-

Edson Sabajo for Globetrotter Lab
Edson Sabajo for Globetrotter Lab
For the first Visions of Visionaries instalment of 2026, Globetrotter Lab sits down with a true pillar of global street culture: Edson Sabajo, co-founder of Patta.Founded in 2004 by Edson and Guillaume "Gee" Schmidt, Patta has grown from a local Amsterdam boutique into a world-renowned independent ecosystem. The "Architecture of Independence" is their manual—a blueprint that prioritised cities like Milan and Lagos over the traditional industry hubs of Paris and Berlin. Built on Surinamese roots and a "people-first" philosophy, Patta remains the definitive case study on how a brand can scale globally while remaining fiercely sovereign.Recorded at Suudu Lagos—the members-only creative hub and home to Patta affiliates—this three-part series deconstructs the Patta manual. In Part 1, Edson reflects on the 360-degree journey from his heritage back to the African continent, and the raw energy he witnessed firsthand on the ground in Jakarta.-

Shunter – A New Space in Rotterdam
Shunter – A New Space in Rotterdam
Housed in a former NS warehouse next to Rotterdam-Zuid station, this raw industrial hall—rails still running across the floor—is being transformed into a new home for music, art, and experimentation.Founded by Sanne, Mark, and Onno, Shunter responds to a growing lack of space for electronic music, light art, performance, and work that lives between club and gallery—especially in Rotterdam-Zuid, where creative energy is high but structural space is scarce.Shunter will open about one weekend per month, with room in between for try-outs, experiments, and ideas still taking shape. The goal is to open this spring. To make that happen, the space needs basic infrastructure: toilets, a bar, sound insulation, and visitor facilities. €75,000 is required in total—€40,000 still needs to be raised through crowdfunding. Want to help bring Shunter to life? Donate if you can. Share the campaign. Talk about it. Or roll up your sleeves and help build.-
