BACK HOME

Coming to The Collective in Florida Road is Back Home, a contemporary exhibition of selected, established artists who have travelled nationally and internationally in their artistic journey. The exhibition explores the artists’ emotional reality, experiences and interpretations of returning home.

The artists are invited to identify with the cultures, values, people and places that have shaped them and their relationships with others. Back Home can be interpreted in many ways, bringing together a myriad of related subject matter. It also offers the artists a chance to interrogate the environment in which their initial passion for art started and provides them with a site in which to humbly bring home the fruit of their work.

The participating artists include Witty Nyide, Clive Sithole, Yvette Dunn and Bongumenzi Ngobese, among others.

Back Home, runs at The Collective from June 18 to July 7. The gallery is situated at 48b Florida Road, Morningside (entrance in 4th Avenue).
