"yo!!!! I'm here America heeheehee! Scope the Moon" — Moonchild

South African experimental electro-pop artist Moonchild recently made her first trip from her home of Johannesburg to New York City. The singer & fashion designer—who made her mark with the striking visuals for “Rabubi" & “Go Starring" and her collaboration with Fantasma—came to town for her American live debut at the CMJ Music Marathon.

We asked photographer Andrew Boyle to document the blue-haired creative's stints across Williamsburg, Times Square, and the MTA subway in the following fashion editorial photo shoot. See the full gallery and a behind-the-scenes video, which features Moonchild wearing some of her own designs as well as clothes styled by Karina Sharif and Honey Makwakwa, below.

"When I crossed the street running, more like searching, where I could skate again a Sex and the City-on-steroids shot was captured"

"Running in Times Square in a leotard not giving a rats ass was also a dope high. No one was offended at any point."
