Featured for this week's is Hanien Conradie, a South African artist whose practice explores our relationship with the natural world through painting, performance and poetry. Working with materials gathered from the places she inhabits, such as river clay, ochre, burnt plant matter and water, she allows the properties and unpredictability of these materials to shape the work. Her paintings emerge through an embodied process of looking, remembering and responding to place.

From the different voices that contribute to our continental conversations and perspectives, we present a spotlight on featured artists from around the continent, available on Latitudes Online.

Today's spotlight is Reem Aljeally, a visual artist and curator with a background in Architecture. Her artistic practice spans painting, installation, and printmaking, centring on space, memory, movement, and self-image. Her paintings focus on introspective female figures, using recurring motifs like cats and plants to evoke comfort, resilience, and emotional depth. She has held solo exhibitions in Sudan and Egypt.

Aljeally’s research and curatorial practice has been intrigued by questions of forming one’s identity in its social context, the spaces we inhabit, the politics of representation and what shapes the Sudanese contemporary scene.

In response to and alongside Acts of Care, LCA is proud to present How is a triangle the strongest shape?

Curated by Denzo Nyathi, this concise group exhibition ponders the methodologies of endurance associated with resistance, taking a particular look at the height of the HIV/AIDS crisis in South Africa.

Ephemera and other crafty practices are re-examined and brought to the forefront of fine art, with a q***r cohort of artists — Talia Ramkilawan, Athi Patra Ruga and Sizwe Sama — practising their own forms of resistance.

This ephemera and visual language of activism, typically in the form of placards and posters, inspires the exhibition's textile focus, adding a necessary gendered and q***red lens through which to read the history and questions the show engages.

Upcoming show at LCA | Acts of Care: Immersive Exhibition Brings Township AIDS Project Archive to Life.

A new immersive exhibition is set to transform decades-old archival material into a living, participatory experience, inviting audiences to witness, recognise, and actively continue a legacy of q***r community care that began in Soweto, Johannesburg, more than three decades ago.

Acts of Care is an Extended Reality (XR) exhibition drawing on archival material from the Township AIDS Project (TAP), held by the GALA Q***r Archive. Using virtual reality, augmented reality, and an interactive creative public space, the exhibition explores how communities in early 1990s Johannesburg and Soweto organised care, education, and advocacy in response to the HIV/AIDS crisis, at a time when the disease was poorly understood, deeply stigmatised, and often framed as a moral or political threat.
