Nandipha talks about how sexuality, androgyny and the animal human space exist within the work she makes.
About the speaker
Born in Swaziland in 1982, Nandipha graduated with a Masters in Fine Art from the Michaelis School of Fine Art, University of Cape Town, in 2007. She won the Standard Bank Young Artist Award for Visual Art in 2011, for which she produced the national travelling exhibition Faena. She has had five solo shows at Stevenson in Cape Town and Johannesburg, and held her first European solo exhibition at Andréhn-Schiptjenko, Stockholm, in 2013. She sculpts and manipulates cowhide to create macabre and beautiful art, exploring ideas of feminine beauty, sexual subversion and unease.
