I decided to explore South African themes to process and honor the memories of my time in Cape Town in August 2024.
The piece incorporates South African news clippings, sheet music for the song “Shosholoza,” and articles about Cape Town, bringing together elements of the country’s rich history and culture.
The central feature of this piece is the striking King Protea (Protea cynaroides), South Africa’s national flower, which graces the landscapes of the Cape of Good Hope National Park. Known for its grandeur, it symbolizes resilience, thriving in conditions shaped by wildfires and regenerating with new growth. Its endurance is a fitting representation of the strength and perseverance found in South African culture and its people.
