Ze

The exhibition looks great and I am happy with the show. I think the images speak for themselves and I look forward to making more. JOZI is great place to show and I would like to hear from other artist who come to see the show.

Dissertation progress

I have submitted my draft for review and I am trying hard to have it done by end of August. I just hope it links in well with my new body of work the pin-hole photographs titled Ze. Ndiza kuba seJozi ngoLwesine eBrodie/Stevenson kwaye ndicinga indlela eziboniswe ngayo iifoto zinomxalenye ondinika enye indlela yokuzibona.

pin-hole photography

My work and interest in pin-hole images lies in looking at some of Jean's work. I wanted to work with photography in order to explore sexuality and gender. I was inspired by some of Nicholas Hlobo work titles were his work are part of the narrative of Xhosa culture. In the new pieces I work with the body and Xhosa titles in order to make it complex and make statement about my own queer sexuality. I enjoy being seen as a exponent of queer culture and the new work is different from the series I have done previously. Okwa ngoku andika yazi ukuba ndizakuyibiza ngaliphi igama lomsebenzi omtsha we pin-hole camera.

nqundu

This is a Xhosa meaning for nude and I want to use it as a title for my earlier work. The focus now is on my dissertation and also working towards a body of work that is successful for the Masters programme. I intend to be at the showing of Penny Siopis and me at the Brodie/Stevenson Gallery on July.
