Episode 107: Motlhoki Nono - Kissing Studies
Manage episode 405139246 series 1927416
On the 14th of February 2024 we had the pleasure of opening a special Valentine's Day exhibition by South African artist, Motlhoki Nono. The exhibition, titled 'Kissing Studies', serves as a profound reflection on the performance of the kiss, delving into the nuanced questions surrounding the constructions of romance. The artist confronts the ‘ideal object of love’, by rendering gentle forms of black lovers’ image near and within romance. In this playful series exploring black people speaking in tongues, Motlhoki aims to unravel the complex tapestry of love while scrutinising the historic representation of black characters across diverse romantic narratives.
Motlhoki sat down with DKP exhibitions manager, Anya Lureman to expand on her thoughts, processes and her time in the David Krut Workshop. Enjoy!
