About the event
Past, Present and Future
Past, Present and Future is a group exhibition featuring four South African artists whose work explores the country’s journey since 1994. Through bold and emotional artworks, the exhibition highlights the ongoing struggles of South Africans—corruption, racism, and the unfulfilled promises of democracy.
The exhibition is divided into three parts:
The past reflects on South Africa’s apartheid origins and how its history continues to shape the present.
The present reveals the realities of inequality, political unrest, and social division still affecting many lives.
The future is seen through the innocence of children—symbols of purity, resilience, and untapped potential. Their presence offers a quiet but powerful hope for a better, more just South Africa.
