    Life Under Democracy

    R350

    Featuring images that capture South Africa’s status after 18 years of liberation, this collection of photographs includes personal daily reflections as well as more deliberate excursions that present democratic life in the republic. As the photographer returns to the areas he shot in the 1980s and visits some of the people and places previously photographed during apartheid, this book offers a sense of how much has changed and, in some cases, how much has remained the same. Often utilizing an iPhone camera as a means of discourse, this fascinating account focuses on the subject of social change.
