"'Any Given Sunday' began with an intimately public performance by @BSiwani that centred and held at its core, purity, spiritual power, particularly in relation to ubungoma, which ontologically holds divinity and its power in place." @UzmaZRizvi ow.ly/QAKL50HEsjC

As much as the power of expression has played a role in dehumanising, its ability to humanise and restore has a more profound impact. @strOberrybOmpi in conversation with @BSiwani, @bonolokavula, Thabisa Mjo (@MashTDesign), @AnelisaMangcu and Zizipho Poswa ow.ly/nGka50Hq62Q

With themes spanning colonialism, race, gender and language, Buhle’s work is heavily influenced by her individual heritage as well as her role in collective society. #SBYA2021 #ItCanBe

According to #SBYA for Visual Art @BSiwani, art can help us navigate our past and create a more inclusive world, especially for the previously marginalised. #SBYA2021 #ItCanBe @artsfestival

I forgive myself for viewing someone’s lack of reciprocation as a challenge to convince them of my worth.
