Through the experiential lens of a racially ambiguous Black woman with a personal narrative that traverses rural and urban, the Mafikeng-born multidisciplinary artist interrogates race, gender, and mental health, among other fascinations. Her often playful and luminous work has been part of numerous group shows and she has had a presence at both the Turbine Art Fair and FNB Art Joburg.
