Kanye Nawe celebrates 20 years of Faces and Phases, Prof. Zanele Muholi's landmark photographic series documenting the lives of Black lesbian, transgender, queer and gender-diverse communities. Held at Southern Guild in Cape Town, the exhibition reflects on two decades of image-making, memory and collective storytelling, bringing together works from across Muholi's celebrated practice. Through reflections on the opening, community, chosen family and the enduring power of the archive, this feature explores how Kanye Nawe extends beyond the gallery, affirming that Faces and Phases is not only a photographic project, but a living testament to visibility, collaboration and shared history.

Thirty-two years into Freedom Day, we remember how art and photography were silenced when they should have spoken loudest. In Paternoster, a different rhythm is rising. The Whose Freedom exhibition, born from MaseKhaya and West Coast Kids, placed cameras in children's hands - and with them, a voice no one can take. Because time is more valuable than money, and we made children, but how do we raise them if not by trusting them to document their own world? What unfolds is a decolonised curriculum, a methodology of love, a command to keep shooting and never stop. Freedom looks like small hands on a camera, a story told from the inside.
