Zanele Muholi

<p>For several years, Zanele Muholi, a non-binary and queer artist, has been working on a vast project around portraiture and self-portraiture. They shine a light on people who would not normally be artists’ models –­ the invisible ­– and in particular Black LGBTQIA&#43; people in post-apartheid South Africa. Muholi has only recently started working with sculpture, and their pieces enter into a dialogue with the other statues in the garden. Presented without a pedestal, the sculptures challenge traditional modes of representation, making absence – whether due to gender or ethnicity – present. Juxtaposed with the garden’s historical warlike sculptures, the artist presents themself seated and restrained, sleeping, or emerging from the depths of the earth.</p><p>Zanele Muholi documents and archives the lives and struggles of LGBTQI&#43; communities, evokes violence, the fate of black South African women and questions of identity, through photos, calligraphy, installations, paintings or sculptures. Muholi’s self-proclaimed mission is ‘to rewrite a black queer and trans visual history of South Africa for the world to know of our resistance and existence at the height of hate crimes in South Africa and beyond’. Creating a powerful, daring aesthetic, with an incredible evocative force, Sir Muholi frees themself from codes and rules to give us new canons, new models.</p>
