TAXI-014: Mmakgabo Helen Sebidi (Educational Supplement)

David Krut Books — Tue, 21 Jun 2022 14:22:07 +0000

This educational supplement is published together with a TAXI art book on Mmakgabo Mmapula Helen Sebidi. Helen Sebidi traverses mental and physical landscapes with an eye trained on the dangerous, the discomfiting, the traumatic and the ecstatic in human experience. She is deeply grounded in her rural upbringing and traditions but also finely attuned to the rhythms of the city in which she has spent much of her adult life. Sebidi brings together these two worlds in works of great visionary and prophetic power. Her themes are wide-ranging: her cultural roots, the wisdom of the ancestors, the ravages of the modern world on the human psyche, the loss of tradition, the potential of human creativity to build relationships and restore the past.
