Figures in Situ

"Fascinated by the idea of whitewashing stones on a near hill, I was inspired to depict the tradition of kalking, practiced in Elim. Once a year, over Easter time, descendants and residents of Elim whitewash the graves of their loved ones as an act of honouring and paying homage to the lives they’ve lived. Figures in Situ and Finding the answers represent this tradition."
