Informal miners draining the soil, Durban Deep Mine, Roodepoort, 2013.
As part of the Joburg Photo Umbrella taxis are wrapped with the work of photographer Jerry Gaegane. Gaegane’s series Marang a Letsatsi deals with informal mining in Johannesburg.
This mobile exhibition project is an expansion and exploration of alternative approaches to display/presentation of photography art works. It seeks to give an opportunity for a continual interaction and engagement between a Community, Sites where narrative originates from and the body of work itself. This project, in particular aims to establish a dialogue on experiences of informal surface and underground miners on the West Rand and surrounding areas.
