Installation view of The Lost Men Mozambique , 2007. Nine pigment-printed photographs (300 x 100 cm each), voile, aluminium, polyethylene, size variable. Photographed by Joachim Wussow. Courtesy of Sylt Foundation and Art Source South Africa. Cartographies of Becoming , The Sylt Foundation, Sylt Island, Germany. 24 December 2021 – 30 December 2022 Cartographies of Becoming interrogates the ephemeral process of positioning the self, the artist self and the social in response to a world in disintegration. How can we imagine, dream and create new meaning-making through the remembrance, and re-arrangement of perspectives, of memories, of trauma, of experiences? Six artists and their departure from the certainty of our cultural maps of belonging into the ephemeral space of transition. A reprint of the banners from The Lost Men Mozambique (2007) and Rising-falling (2021) were selected by curator Indra Wussow for this exhibition.

Number 05000674PV , 2009. Manière noire stone lithograph, hand printed, hand coloured, signed, numbered and dated by the artist. Black lithographic ink and watercolour pigment on 285 gsm Fabriano Rosaspina Avorio paper. 80 x 156 cm. Edition 35. Courtesy of Art Source South Africa Rites of Passage: Between Light and Shadow , Irma Stern Museum, Cape Town, South Africa, 11 – 18 June 2016 Rites of passage are experiences that mark the transition from one phase of life to another; we are wanderers constantly travelling between passageways of light and darkness. These unfolding linear progressions bound to time, or fluid journeys from a past to future-nows, can be understood through Arnold van Gennep’s tripartite pattern of human transitions; ‘detachment’ (movement away from a previous state of being), ‘liminality’ (journeying through a state of ambiguity) and ‘re-aggregation’ (realigning oneself with the shifts and reintegrating into society). These fleeting moments become the markers of living, birth rites, religious or cultural initiation rites, mortuary rites and everything in between, first words, birthdays, educational milestones, and adolescence to adulthood. In contemporary society some of these ceremonial devices, once shared through communal ritualistic practices, have been abandoned, and others transformed to reflect contemporary conditions. Artists extend these rituals into modern life, articulating rites of passage through their practice. They bring our awareness back to these moments of release, transgression and transformation, by documenting, reenacting or translating rites of passage in various mediums. Like the chapters of our stories, these junctures in life are momentous ceremonies that are performed and remembered, or the intimate shifts that silently go unnoticed. We become the product of these experiences. These attuning practices that we design and ascribe meaning to, rights that are scripted and imposed upon us or granted to us, shape our sense of identity. Number 05000674PV (2009) and Parade of Shadows (2009) were selected by the curators for this exhibition. This exhibition was organised by Sulger-Buel Lovell Gallery.
