图录文章:
From the ongoing series Somnyama Ngonyama (‘Hail, the Dark Lioness’), Babhekile, loosely translated from the Zulu language, means ‘they are watching’. Here, the artist looks over their shoulder with a small travel bag over their head. Muholi’s pose, gaze and choice of prop allude to themes of racialised surveillance, space and travel. Turning the camera on themselves, Muholi explores different characters and archetypes to confront the politics of race, gender and sexuality. Muholi is a 2016 recipient of a Chevalier from l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres and an Infinity Award from ICP, and their work resides in such prominent institutions as New York’s Guggenheim Museum and MoMA, Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts and London’s Tate Modern, which is currently holding the visual activist’s first major UK survey.
