“The works speak to the history of lighthouse keepers, exploring themes of labour, family structures and memory,” said Kganye. “The whole show is speaking to those themes, just in different ways.”, an exhibition in the Manor House, which Kganye describes as a culmination of her practice, incorporating photographic works, dioramas and patchworks that serve as a prelude to the outdoor sculptures.

“The stories that I portray become stories that have been repeated by many people. There are many themes behind those stories — thinking about how life was tough for many black families but also the joy that could not be taken away,” Kganye said. She highlights the significance of bringing Kganye’s work back to South Africa, where it has been less frequently seen compared with its international reception. “It’s important for people to see how brilliant her work is and to appreciate its relevance within our cultural landscape.”
