book review

I finished reading the book titled Passionate Camera and I think it's interesting in the sense that there are existant visual forms of photography that captures the body differently from the so called 'norm' of documentary photography. I enjoyed the essays by the different writers and they are quite insightful about queer culture.

residency

I can't seem to be able to choose which residency to apply for as there are lots of opportunities and I think of what fits my profile. I have been recently exhibiting some off the pin-hole photographs at Bendana Pniel gallery in France, Paris and I am chuffed about it. I have been thinking about the feedback from the shows, and I have heard that they are good.

review exhibition

I think that the feedback fro the review was good. Some of the suggestions were to frame the pin-hole images differently and maybe try and resolve them. Marislov Lichi is someone to look at if you want to build you own ideas again.

exhibition review

Ndicinga ukuba lemiboniso eseBrodie.Stevenson yam mihle kwaye ndimangazwe bubukhulu befoto. I think that the pin-hole images were quite unique and successful.

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.
