Kin, a collection of images shot throughout South Africa over the past decade, focuses on the photographer's family, his community and himself. Hugo describes his series as "an engagement with the failure of the South African colonial experiment and my sense of being 'colonial driftwood.' South Africa is such a fractured, schizophrenic, wounded and problematic place ... How does one take responsibility for history, and to what extent should one try? How do you raise a family in such a conflicted society?" This work attempts to address these questions and reflect on the nature of conflicting personal and collective narratives. Beautifully designed by Hans Seeger. Item #14773
