Cultural Village 2014

Part of the group exhibition Uncertain Terms 

What If The World

Cape Town

​

Cultural Village is a questioning of the complications of living in a capitalist world as well as being a shrine to some of my favorite South African food items. It muddles what is deemed worthy of such a position within a neoliberal world system. While most of these items are not healthy for the body nor are they examples of conscious consumption  they hold a meaningful space in daily life and cultural memory. The colours and textures of the items emit an energy and glow. They speak to the kind of signage synonymous of a capitalist world but also of the rich colours and golden hues of a shrine.
