Linocut: "Take Care of One's Belongings" by Linga Diko
The Egazini Outreach Project in Grahamstown, South Africa, operates in a facility once occupied by apartheid riot police that has been transformed into studio space for local artists and crafters. The 28 linocuts displayed tell stories of everyday life: struggles for equality and justice, work, and leisure activities in the new South Africa. Courtesy of Sragow Gallery in New York.
