In collaboration with fine arts photographer Ignatius Mokone, this painting captures a moment of a young Basotho man alongside his loyal companion, keeping watch over his flock, both calmly surveying the rugged mountains and extensive bush of the Transkei, nestled in the heart of the Eastern Cape of Southern Africa. Airy depth invites the viewer to step into their world and meet an unapologetic gaze. Stick and "zol" in hand, we witness the modernizing stride of traditions and watch as hardy grace meets silent pride.
