Karima Madut:
Sudanese-Kiwi actress Karima Madut known for her role as Clementine Dean on the popular NZ Soap Opera Shortland Street, moved to Australia 5 years ago. Having moved to New Zealand from Kenya aged 7, Karima is the second African actor to have stared on the soap and also an accomplished artist having performed at some high profile music festivals in NZ and Australia; Rhythm and Vines, Splore, Womad and Subsonic.
Recently she has taken on a new enterprise as an event curator and producer. She currently runs two music events “Sounds of Garden of Eden” and “Sycamore Sessions” under the banner of her events business “Sycamore Entertainment.” Both events focus on promoting African talent in Australia while simultaneously building a melting pot artists’ community where musicians and audiences alike come together to collaborate and celebrate music and the creators in our Melbourne community.
Actively broadening her artistic reach beyond her acting, she credits her explorations and interests in honing her understanding of people and deepening her understanding of art.
