'The Moments' amidst the chaos has a review on the new and innovative magazine  Urban Edge Magazine. I absolutely loved the article as it reminded me of the opening night and the uber chic crowd that graced me with their presence that night. Thank you to Jana Du Plessis for the amazing review and Martin Venter for the images. The exhibition ends tomorrow , and so my last post will be my second last post for the year.

After a crazy day filled with lectures , I went to meet up with Yang about my collaboration with Doepelganger. We decided that we will have the event end of October. The ideas for the gig are insane and  I am keen for it to come to life. Once things are confirmed , I will be able to be more detailed about the event and the concept behind it.

On the day of my opening , I had the lovely and talented duo Lehlonolo Molapo and Wandile Mnguni shooting my documentary about 131 days and 'The Moments' amidst the chaos.  I will be meeting up with Wandile on Friday to see what they have done so far , and discuss the post production. These two are amazing and have made my vision possible. My objective with the documentary is to screen it next month , closer to the closing of the exhibition. Lets kill it.

I went to the gallery today for the first time since the opening. My best friend Noxolo Mafu is in town , and so she asked that I go with her to go view the collection. The two week break from the gallery and all the exhibition admin was much needed. It was great visiting the place again.

Today I had the craziest day. At 11:30 , after lectures , I met up with the Glamour team at the Buchanan Studios in Buchanan Square in Woodstock for the 'Signature Style' shoot. The shoot is for the December issue.  I went in with my Mom and little Sister , Solitha. As I walked in , I was immediately approached by Melissa Twigg , the features writer who was so welcoming. She introduced me to the team . I went into the make-up room where I met Louise Bingham , the make-up artist who is talented , friendly and the woman who introduced me to the concealer of my dreams. She refused to apply foundation because she happened to think I didnt need it. However , she gave me great tips on the best foundation , concealer and powder to use for my skin. The shoot was fun , short and sweet. Photographer Lar Leslie was patient and knew what she wanted , which made my job easier. I really struggle being the one photographed , as I have gotten used to being behind the camera.  I had fun.
