LWANDO DLAMINI
Lwando Dlamini, a visual artist, born in the Eastern Cape and raised in the Western Cape has always created work based on his lived experiences. Dlamini, who works with oil paint and mixed media, brings attention to the injustice of police brutality in the townships all over South Africa, the human body and the violent bodily harm he has faced through illness and near-death experiences. In his work, physically stitching together these subject matters, in essence, stirs a conversation around his awareness about the broken body and particularly focusing on memory loss.
