MOCAA Speaks: Mary Sibande

Apr 9, 2018

Art moves us in very unique and specific ways!

MOCAA Speaks, a 30-minute gallery talk hosted by a Zeitz MOCAA staff member, encourages individual relationships to the artworks, museum and the people who run it.

Unravelling the narrative in the work of Mary Sibande, In the Midst of Chaos, There is Opportunity (2017), and the central character, Sophie, the presenters link the worlds of fact and fiction, art and autobiography, by placing themselves and their narratives within the frame. Providing these twists to the heroine’s adventures they open up the work to multiple readings, highlighting the diverse ways in which we can view the artwork.
