This stone lithograph was based on a photo the artist took in downtown Joburg near her studio, of a man carrying an inordinate about of bags full of waste many of which were slung around and tied to his body.
The figure attains gigantic proportions towering over the city he moves through, the bags of waste contents hinting at colonial baggage and recyclable ideas imposed by generations of western imposition: churches, laws, the heads of the disposable bodies and lives, the by-product of these systems.
