Siyababa:  is zulu slang and when it is loosely translated to english it means we (or better yet) I am hot 

Behold! Siyabonga SIYABABA Mtshali. Please memorise his face because he’s a creative force to be reckoned with.

Gae - which means home in Sepedi (Northern Sotho) is a short docu depicting my experience of going home. I don’t think I can explain how special this kind of love language made me feel.

Within Without

I don’t know. I’m yet to discover why I find solitude so alluring presently. I can’t imagine a better chance to experience oneself without limitations. Could you conceive anything better than doing nothing but just being. Being present and mindful and by yourself. Just within without. Yes. within without. I like that.
