'The complexity and contradictory existence of mankind is what gives
me a hard-on about being alive. This is what my work is about," says
Angolan artist Nástio Mosquito.

A filmmaker, performance poet, actor and visual artist, Mosquito --
who will be performing at the Poetry Africa Festival in Durban next
week -- is a provocative mix of humanist, sex and political
consciousness. Imagine drag queen Rupaul mainlining Franz Fanon and
Dambudzo Marechera, then disseminating that high to anybody who cares.
