A weekend special on the works of Koto Bolofo (@kotobolofo ) spanning decades of image-making across photography and film. Bolofo’s practice has long existed outside easy categorisation; documenting apartheid and its aftermath without reducing Africa to spectacle, identity or resistance alone. A body of work marked by precision, restraint and an enduring commitment to narrative. Unflinchingly true to the voodoo of analogue photography, South African-born, London-based Bolofo, famed for his award-winning fashion photography and films has strived to create an independent body of timeless photography, for his own pleasure.
