Christopher Moller Gallery | You Handed Me The Scissors

In Sizwe Sama’s captivating series titled 'You Handed Me The Scissors', the artist explores the importance of cutting ties with negative individuals. Drawing from personal experiences, Sama delves into the dynamics of one-sided relationships.

In today's social media-driven world, where narcissism often prevails, we are presented with carefully curated versions of people's lives. We witness the happy moments and snapshots of joy and excitement but remain unaware of the struggles and challenges they face behind the scenes. Our society has lost sight of what true happiness means. As depression rates soar, our obsession with material possessions grows.

Overall, Sama's series 'You Handed Me The Scissors' not only captivates the eye but also touches the heart. It serves as a poignant reminder of the passionate highs and heart-breaking lows experienced in relationships, urging us to reflect on our own experiences and the significance of self-care in fostering healthy connections.

You Handed Me The Scissors runs from 11 January - 19 February 2024
