September con Somadifusa y Plu con Pla.

[asakiyume]

Here is the September image from my small-batch printed calendar from the Colombian muralist who works under the name Somadifusa.

I love how very Semper Vivens it is.



Somadifusa has an Instagram here, but you can also see examples of her art on album covers. Here's one for a collaboration between the Afro-Colombian group Plu con Pla and the US-born producer and instrumentalist Biomigrant:



That album, by the way, is great, and available on Bandcamp here.

The name "Plu con Pla" comes from a traditional dish in Tumaco, a city on the Pacific coast of Colombia. The "Plu" is short for the name of a beloved fish, the plumuda. "Pla" is short for plátano (plantain)--> so, plumuda fish with plantains. The band has a song called "La Plumuda Llegó" about life on the coast, fishing, and the plumuda.

La Murga (ft. El Búho) is the first thing that started playing when I clicked through, and it sure does make you want to shake that thang. :D

Right? SO GOOD.

That's really terrific. I'm so glad you have one of her calendars!

[asakiyume]

I'm glad too! I've been making the pages into CD covers for mix CDs as I finish with them.

Oh, that's a fantastic use for those pages! It really does look like a cover for a music album already.

[sartorias]

I really like the bottom art.

[asakiyume]

It's so rich and full! Many of her artworks are that way--most!

[shewhomust]
