In her photographs and costumed mannequins, Mary Sibande critiques stereotypical depictions of Black South African women. She shows her characters reimagining their lives in radical ways, symbolized by fantastic costumes of her own design. Arranged in distinct color motifs, the exhibition guides viewers on an emotional journey through different periods of South African history. Join Sibande as she discusses Blue Purple Red in relation to intersections of race, gender, and class in South Africa.
