The description from the artist Usen Obot on this exhibition states: "The three sectioned exhibits encompasses artworks born out of the exploration into common materials which include perspex, leather, fabric, fiberglass, clay, metal and copper. It is a metaphorical re-examination of South Africa's socio-political culture to highlight and engage on the complexities of South Africa's new democracy."
