Still Moving

The exhibition presents a fascinating lineup of established and emerging artists, including William Kentridge, Sam Nhlengethwa, Boemo Diale, Nthabiseng Kekana, Lady Skollie, Misheck Masamvu, Frances Goodman, and Rosie Mudge.


Still Moving is a group exhibition that explores the political and poetic dimensions of movement from the perspective of renowned South African artists.

‘The exhibition challenges us to rethink our ideas and the effects of movement when we encounter the artworks,’ says curator Jessica Nupen. ‘It reflects the diversity of movement and how we move fluidly through memories and composed realities, choreographing and reconfiguring our own identities.’

The works on display in Still Moving are tactile and emotionally charged. Whether through multi-layered painterly gestures, shimmering sculptural forms that reinterpret femininity, or installations made from household scraps that tell stories of healing and repair, the exhibition shows how the interplay of material and form becomes a vehicle for personal and collective history.


Far beyond the act of physical movement, Still Moving explores movement as a metaphor:
for transformation, resistance, collective memory, survival and emergence. Through various media – from painting to sculpture and drawing to installations – the exhibition traces the visible and invisible paths of bodies, memories and identities shaped by migration, cultural heritage, urban rhythms, intimacy and socio-political change.

Still Moving is both meditation and provocation, insisting that even in stillness, movement occurs. Each work of art becomes a body in which home and exile, past and present collapse and merge into one another.
