Gallery 1, Keyes Art Mile, Johannesburg
2-30 November 2023

Naledi Chai was one of two artists selected to take part in a dual exhibition following the Art After Baby initiative by INCCA at Keyes Art Mile in November 2023. For this she presented her body of work titled inzalo.“Devoted to mirroring,” writes Nkosazana Hlalethwa, “Chai reflects reality by making the immaterial parts of our material world (whether fears, urges, realities or convictions) visible. So far, these manifestations have taken on varying forms primarily. Collaging. Graffiti. Physical and digital digging. Coding. Gaming. Collecting. Zine publishing. Researching. Sketching. Sculpture making. Performance. Convening. Recording, drawing, destroying, enhancing and presenting.”

Art After Baby was a collaborative project, supported by the National Arts Council South Africa (NAC) Presidential Employment Stimulus Programme (PESP 4).
