This online event is held in association with the ‘Photography Now’ display in the V&A Photography Centre, which features recent contemporary acquisitions by both artists. On display until autumn 2025, Jo Ractliffe is presenting a series of photographs from her series ‘As Terras do Fim do Mundo’ [Land at the End of the World], investigating the legacies of the Border War between South Africa and Angola, and Lebohang Kganye is exhibiting her 2021 animated film, ‘Shadows of Re-Memory’, a fictional history that reveals the power of storytelling in legacies of collective cultural experience.
