Wound Machine
2026
A solo show in a labyrinth of rooms of a former brothel, looking at the interplay between innocence and violence.

Commercial LED signs of macabre children’s drawings, a plush-toy pile of extinct species, POV found footage of the conflicts of a stray city cat, an Afrikaans children’s story of a slave-trader smoking tobacco on Table Mountain with the Devil.

Traversing through personal, political and biological tunnels asking whether it is us, or the world, that is evil.
