Description

Lindokuhle Sobekwa's latest work is a deeply personal and thought-provoking exploration of memory, loss, and identity. The project began with a family portrait that had been altered to remove the subject's face, sparking Sobekwa's reflection on his sister Ziyanda's life and disappearance. Sobekwa's photographs are accompanied by handwritten notes and a long-form essay by Neelika Jayawardane, adding depth and context to this powerful work. The book is a poignant examination of the fragility of human connection and the lasting impact of historical trauma on individuals and society as a whole. Through his unique blend of photography and personal narrative, Sobekwa sheds light on a troubling aspect of South Africa's history, one that continues to resonate today.
