Noirwave is a movement created by Petite Noir and creative director RhaRha, with it's roots in music but it's vision fixed firmly on the creative future. Responding to current cultural movements centred in Africa - arising against a backdrop of international anxieties concerning borders, nationhood and globalisation - Noirwave offers followers a citizenship which rejoices in freedom of movement, physically and creatively.A1.
