Zwelethu Mthethwa’s photographs go beyond being mere social documents: his portraits look at psychology behind the people, whose very high sense of aesthetics and design comes from their need to survive hard suffering. Their bright and colourful artefacts made using recycled materials replace the gloom of poverty, giving pride and dignity back to the owners |
