Tega Tafadzwa, Waiting List, 2022
JD Malat Gallery is thrilled to announce the debut solo exhibition by Tega Tafadzwa RWENDO - WHICH MEANS JOURNEY, curated in collaboration with Africa First and on view at JD Malat Gallery from 12 October until 7 November 2022. Coinciding with Frieze London, Tafadzwa’s highly anticipated exhibition offers a celebratory take on the African diasporic population in South Africa and London during the UK’s busiest art week.

RWENDO – WHICH MEANS JOURNEY

RWENDO - WHICH MEANS JOURNEY consists of fifteen new paintings which reflect on the journeys of people who have experienced difficulties of relocation. Originally from Zimbabwe, Tafadzwa pursued his artistic career in 2008 when he moved to Cape Town, South Africa. As a foreigner who fell subject to marginalisation during his search for a more prosperous career outside of his home country, Tafadzwa dedicates his art to the stories of fellow migrants who similarly faced the unsettling challenges of ‘othering’. Capturing the stylish and confident personalities of his subjects through his vibrant collaged canvases, Tafadzwa seeks to honour and highlight the lives throughout the African diaspora.
