Winner of the FNB Art Prize in 2013, ‘Uncles & Angels’ explores questions of chastity, virginity testing, purity and tradition, presenting a compelling examination of the manipulation of cultural heritage and questioning the practice of looking to tradition for solutions to contemporary problems. The work has found new relevance in the age of Trump and the #MeToo movement. Music composition and sound design by João Orecchia.
