DESI CASUAL GLAMOUR
Desi Casual Glamour is an ode to South African Indian culture, songs, and affection through an anthem of flamboyance, camp, and boyish effeminacy. Githan Coopoo intends to hold a conversation between South African Indian prophecy and grappling with his identity as a “double diaspora desi”, belonging and not belonging all at once”. Coopoo references overt stereotypes in the South Asian Faith to comment on specific societal discourses withheld and enforced on him growing up as a South Asian in a South African context.
