Sokunge (As If)

Sokunge/As if . Sokunge is a Shona word that describes phenomena that is intrinsically something else other than their appearance. More like deception or dissimulation of form concept or sound. In this exhibition I was looking at forms that appear as something but upon a closer look they reference a lot of other things more like below the surface politics. That is the relationship between hidden and exposed transcripts it is the subtext the micro politics. Theres a lot of mingling of symbolism in the work itself and layered aesthetics.
