Innibos Festival Artist
Celebrating 50 years of art-making
Shaya-iNgodini is a journey inside and outside the now colourful Kabokweni exploring the socio-cultural vibrance of township life...the beautiful "township flowers" expressed in multilingualism, dance and music...it is a dream- an aspired hope for social cohesion in a multicultural society...a journey to investigate hopes in hopeless situations where people do find joy in sorrows, where people experience success in hardships...where they still can praise the Almighty in adverse nights and days...it is a journey to showcase the panoramic Ngodini from a bird's-eye view.
It is a journey to search for the beautiful and bold that we hope for at Ngodini, in condemnation of all social ills caused by poverty, pollution and population.
