Life Stories Quilt: Episode 11th - Säye Skye
<p><strong>Säye Skye’s Interview was recorded online on June 22nd, 2020.<br> <br> </strong>This Episode is in Farsi. </p> <p><strong>Säye Skye</strong> is an award winning transgender Iranian rap artist and LGBTQ rights activist at the forefront of a new hip-hop movement that has its basis in social consciousness. With astonishing originality, his experimental raps challenge deep-rooted stereotypes of misogyny, discrimination, and queerphobia. Since age 13, he has been crafting songs and poems that resonate deeply with people, using music as a platform for communicating truth. Säye Skye’s work is distinguished by both its mystery and infectious energy. Using the poetic language of Farsi, each song elicits an instant audience connection through its passion and pulse. From its unpredictable flow and hypnotic rhythms to its evocative lyrics, Säye Skye’s work invites listeners to question their current state of being.<br> Säye Skye is the first person in Iran’s history to dare sing about the LGBTQ community, their existence and their protracted struggle for freedom. In 2009, he recorded and released his first single in Iran, Säye Yek Zane Irani (Shadow of an Iranian Woman). As a queer artist, he was consequently put at great risk for singing and advocating for LGBTQ rights through his music. In 2010, Säye Skye was forced to leave his home and seek asylum in Turkey, where he was granted refugee status, and moved thereafter to Toronto in March 2011.<br> Säye Skye is currently collaborating with acclaimed German producers and singers on the release of his first EP.<br> <a href="https://sayeskye.com/">sayeskye.com</a><br> <strong>سايه اسكاي خواننده رپ و فعال حقوق بشر در سال ٢٠٠٩ با سه آهنگ “سايه يك زن ايران، حق كشي و بيداري” جرات كرد براي اولين بار قفل سكوت جامعه ال جي بي تي كيو ايران را بشكند، كاري كه منجر به خروج سايه از ايران و زندگي در تبعيد در كانادا شد. در سال ٢٠١٣ جايزه بهترين هنرمند تازه وارد كانادا به سايه اسكاي تعلق گرفت. سايه با آهنگ تي ان ايي همكاري مشترك بين تيم آلماني و كانادايي به وجود آورد كه گفته ميشود در موزيك ويديو اين كار ٢٣ نفر از آلمان در منفيه ١٥ درجه دور هم جمع شدند تا پيام انساني اين آهنگ را به تصوير بكشند. در سال ٢٠١٨ سايه اسكاي در جشنواره تدي اوارد مهمترين جشنواره فيلم كويير جهان با آهنك و ويدئو تي ان ايي روي صحنه رفت و براي اولين بار در تاريخ اين جشنواره به عنوان يك خواننده ايراني حضور پيدا كرد. سايه در ٢٠٢٠ ساخت موسيقي متن و تيتراژ فيلم “نوهارد فيلينكز” را به همراه تیمش به عهده گرفت، اين فيلم داستان دو همجنسگراي پسر ايراني را با كارگرداني فراز شريعت به تصوير مي كشد. فيلمي كه دو جايزه “بست فيچر فيلم” و “ريدزآوارد” رو در جشنواره تدي اوارد در برليناله از آن خود ساخت و از ماه سپتامبر در سينماهاي فرانسه، انگليس و امريكا بر روي پرده خواهد رفت. آخرين آهنگ منتشر شده از سايه اي دي اچ دي نام دارد كه بي شك پيشگام گفتگو در ارتباط با سلامت روان در جامعه ايران محسوب مي شود.</strong></p> <p>Music and songs: <strong>Säye Skye<br> Interview and Edit: Shahrzad Arshadi<br> Photo: @instil_image_co /courtesy of Säye Skye</strong></p> <p><strong>*Life stories Quilt podcast website: </strong><a href="https://lifestoriesquilt.com"><strong>https://lifestoriesquilt.com</strong></a></p>
