About Papaphilia

Papaphilia/Fjorn Bastos is an artist, researcher, and community-event organiser. As an artist, she works primarily in sound and narrativised performance under the name Papaphilia. She also maintains a visual art practice that merges digital collage and oil painting, to interrogate the less visible visual-compositional tropes of colonial landscapes. As a researcher, she is interested in how neoliberal forms of governance in the colony use racialised and sexualised discourses to shape the political; which then informs her writing on sound-poetics and the challenge they pose to anglophone notions of sound and music as property. She has coordinated, managed and overseen community-based projects that cross disciplinary fields, including the facilitation of artist and sound workshops, advocacy campaigning and community building. She is also a director of creative sector consultancy Future Tense, and co producer of Writing and Concepts lecture series.
