About this programme item

The debut solo exhibition by Amogelang Maepa opens in Johannesburg following its Cape Town showing.

To mark the opening on 4 June, Maepa will perform a live poetry reading within the exhibition at 6.30pm and 7.30pm.

In ONE-NIGHT STANDS IN WHITE MUSTANGS, Maepa works between poetry and ceramic form to explore desire not as an event, but as a system, repeating, circulating, and leaving residue. The exhibition moves through the aftermath of intimacy, where forms hold what cannot be resolved: longing, exposure, and the persistence of feeling.

“A sensual, emotionally charged exploration of fleeting desire and lasting residue.”
– Unathi Kondile, Mail & Guardian
