Khomotso Phetla
Khomotso Phetla was born and raised in Limpopo South Africa in the small dusty village named Magukubjane.
He holds a degree “ Bachelor of Arts in Department of Geography Tourism and Environmental Studies” from the University of the Western Cape. He works on the variety of media.
He reflects on the closely related subjects of archive and memory. This often results in an examination of both the human need for ‘conclusive’ stories and the question whether anecdotes ‘fictionalise’ history.
He is using ever-growing archive of documents to create autonomous artworks; he seduces the viewer into a world of ongoing equilibrium and interval that articulates the stream of daily events.
Moments are depicted that only exist to punctuate the human drama in order to clarify our existence and to find poetic meaning in mundane
His works are an investigation of concepts such as authenticity and objectivity, growing up in rural regions made him to see world differently, and he now tries to understand what does it means to grow up in rural areas.
He mostly focuses on presenting real life stories from both his experiences and the things he gets exposed to. This is where his inspiration comes from in most cases.
In his work, he attempts to comprehend how people may truly believe in and understand themselves during happy and bad circumstances.
