Kesaobaka Sephoti

Kesaobaka Sephoti is a 22 year old photographer, filmmaker and director from Johannesburg. The camera is an instrument that teaches an individual to see the world without one and once he realised this, he became one. The process of his practice revolves around memory and the use of images as a reflection of the world. The ability to capture space and time as it had been witnessed, has taught him that he holds great responsibility in his ability to reveal what the world has failed to see. The impurity in the work is equally as important as his need to eradicate it in the world. As he has grown though, he has come to accept that human nature is flawed and the recollection of memoirs he has collected seem to carry that smudge. The next chapter of his life involves following his true desires of becoming a filmmaker and his studies at AFDA, where he pursues a Bachelor of Arts in Motion Picture are a step in the right direction.
