Ukubuta is a personal reflection on my place in the world, how I see myself and how my life experiences have shaped me. Ukubuta is a Bemba word that describes the everyday child play, in which we learn our place in society and how we interact with each other.
My images investigate different aspect of playing house and tell stories of childhood, adolescence and adulthood. Drawn from old stories, they explore stages women and man assume through out their lives.
Ukubuta gives me space to reflect on my experiences, identity and purpose as an artist. Allowing for play creates imaginative images, that help me make sense of the world.
