The works on display create space for reflection, conversation, and connection, fostering a deeper understanding of the complexities of modern life.


By examining the intersections of identity, migration, and resilience, "Baggage" offers a nuanced exploration of what it means to navigate the challenges and opportunities of urban life in Johannesburg.
