This exhibition showcases female and non-binary artists that engage Incantations as a methodology in their various practices to create and formulate their own bodies of work. Pertinent in these works is how each artist intervenes in conventional representations of the female and queer body.

This exhibition works with this definition and further expands on it in the ways in which incantation can be utilised as a means of protecting, healing, affirming and re-imagining in the selected artistic practices. The exhibition thereby offers a contrapuntal reading of the cultural, spiritual, and individual perspectives that the artists bring in their respective bodies of work, and therewith starts to show artistic practice as a ritual.

Exhibiting artists are Rochelle Nembhard, Haneem Christian, LegakwanaLeo Makgekgenene, Tayhe Munsamy, Osaru Obaseki, Hannalie Taute, Souad Abdelrasoul, Nthabiseng Boledi, Anushka Kempken and Hannah Fleishman.
