The Colored Exhibition

“Art gives us a means, when language fails us, when conventional therapy fails us, art gives us the means to work through these things in ways that allow for a different kind of encounter.”

These are the words of a visual artist, Gabrielle Goliath, who is the honoree of the 2019 standard bank young artist award.

This deeply resonates with Miss Rakhalakane and the intention of exhibiting her work of art. It is an authentic reflection of life from a young South African female.

The colored exhibition portrays a story about how we come into the world as just blank canvases and the world fills us with color.
