Artist Nyakallo Phamuli
Year 2023

Emerging artist, Nyakallo Phamuli’s Documentaries of SHE- Thoughts During Night Shift (2023) operates as a kind of autoethnography. She details how the piece “...was just another documentation of self, an exploration of the day-to-day - the subtext is montages of bad memories”. Vibrant upward brushstrokes form a fiery background. Superimposed on the surface is a collage of fractured faces. Bright yellow is contoured by red and blackened shadows forming recognisable outlines of a nose and mouth. The piece reads as a splintered self-portrait - emerging as embers from a world ablaze.
