![]() A Collection to a Degree6 March 2025 Participating: Jean-Claude Nsabimana, Rory Emmett, Nobukho Nqaba, Ulriche Jantjes The exhibition features a selection of work submitted as part of their individual Masters in Fine Art degrees completed in 2022 and 2023. Thematically, the artists explore ideas of identity, home, migration, and marginalised histories. This group exhibition showcases their personal reflections in a range of media including video works, photography, mixed media paintings and installation.
Ulriche’s mixed media paintings in lime wash, straw, and ink on canvas are large scale and tactile. These works, alongside Rory’s video and installation, featuring a cabinet filled with abstracted Delft crockery and reclaimed trade-painter’s Hessian drop sheets, comment on their personal history and identity. In conversation with these works, Nobukho’s photographs and installation of blue overalls reflect on her childhood memories growing up in a marginalised community in Grabouw, a town located in the Elgin Valley in the Western Cape. Jean-Claude’s work comments on migration and the socio-political climate, exploring the extraction and exploitation of Africa’s mineral resources, its impact on the environment and lives on the continent. This exhibition contextualises contemporary issues by reflecting on our personal histories, cultural heritage and lived experiences.
