Addressing identity politics in South Africa | Political Art | Showcase

A young South African artist is fighting contemporary identity politics in a brand new way: she takes painting-like self-portraits using her body as a canvas to convey her message. Zanele Muholi's first solo exhibition, Hail The Dark Lioness consists of more than 60 self-portraits each addressing a different political and social issue.
