The No Colour Collection – Intern Project

.

This is it. This is our time. A time to celebrate and a time to embrace all that we are.

We find ourselves amidst 20 years of freedom in South Africa. Not just democratic freedom, but freedom within ourselves to express who we are as individuals and as a whole.

One of the ways we do this is through our relationship with fashion and the clothes we wear each day. Not because clothes define us but ‘ether because what we wear each day is a celebration of our individuality.

“No colour” is an exhibition of 20 photographs in black and white. They are a dedication to 20 years of democratic freedom in South Africa. Each photograph is aimed at furthering the idea of unity through colour or the lack thereof.

Colour does not define us.
Together, we define colour.
