A ‘One-Night Stand’ with Amogelang Maepa

I could not resist this title. Even the manner in which I stumbled across Amogelang Maepa’s latest show felt like a one-night stand. I spent the evening intimately engaging with her latest body of work on show at Berman Contemporary at the V&A Waterfront’s Silo District. The exhibition opened on Thursday, April 16.

I was running late, on my way to Southern Guild for its amazing The Poets Are Working group exhibition, when along the way I stopped dead in my tracks to marvel at a scrolling LED sign mounted on a white cube wall.
