Furtado Melville

is a non location dependent interdisciplinary practice and an independent writer, arts curator, image maker, and correspondent in Geopolitics, Economics, Fashion, and West Africa. With occasional stints of working as a narrator for audio and film, and hand modelling. I go by the name of Alexandre, named after Alexander III of Macedon, also known as Alexander the Great. Named by my father Malaquias and mother Ricardina. My main educational background is in international business administration at RSM Erasmus University. Not being defined by my studies and/or job titles and wanting to broaden my view of the world, I now work with many of them - it's always a collaborative effort - in between art, commerce, design thinking, film, urban development, social engagement, and people-&-planet-first entrepreneurship. All this whilst having a seat at the table with board of directors as well as engaging with real life on these streets, and trying to shift and fuse between rigid layers and connect different worlds and people by common sense. Capitalistic practices with communistic intentions. Sounds confusing? It is not. It's a never ending research. Some call it being fluid or 21st-century-privileged-possible-realism.

Wu-Tang forever!

work won't wait:

Looking for a part-time PA: working with clients and collaborators across selected projects within art, culture and commerce.
