ENtsane Archive explores contrasting notions of home within my family, with Mdantsane as a poignant intersection. Returning to the township, a place marked by history, resilience, and complexity, has been a journey of discovery. Through my lens, I reimagine home, capturing its spirit through shared connection and the bold vision of those determined to shape their own paths.

The series documents faces of resilience: disillusioned youth, backyard entrepreneurs, and neighbors navigating daily life with unwavering determination. Amid the chaos of afternoons, fleeting moments of calm peak through showing unexpected beauty. I focus on small gestures, intimate interactions, and the rhythms of community life. Each frame is an attempt to honour the everyday visions that emanates from this space, to illustrate how home can simultaneously challenge, nurture, and inspire. Through photography, I seek to preserve these lived experiences, moments that often go unnoticed, yet define the spirit of Mdantsane.
