This first video is of a timelapse shot by Rory Allen of a public exhibit of a long term project Soft Walls sponsored by Art54 and The City of Cape Town. Soft Walls seeks to deal with convivial relationships between migrated African nationals and South Africans; revealing the subtle ways in which individuals make sense of their experiences; forming relationships and bonds that can challenge dominant perceptions wherein difference is celebrated and prejudices towards “foreign” Africans are perpetuated. Smith’s Soft Walls figuratively investigates the subtle ways in which African nationals and South Africans, in relationships, make sense of their space, experiences and complexities. Smith was the first recipient of the Gisèle Wulfsohn Mentorship in Photography at the Market Photo Workshop in association with the family of the late Gisèle Wulfsohn.
