Mary Sibande engages counter-historical narratives and the language of dress to animate the stories of South African women and critique western imperialist depictions of their lives. Her artistic practice takes heavy influences from processes involved in fashion design as she tailors elements of the narrative directly onto the characters through their clothes, playing with colour, meaning and coded motifs.
