Published to coincide with the Standard Bank Young Artist Award 2015, Kemang Wa Lehulere’s first comprehensive monograph traces his work from 2005 to 2015 and his work in progress for the SBYA exhibition, opening at the National Arts Festival in Grahamstown and touring South Africa. Images of Wa Lehulere's drawings, performances, videos and installations are interspersed with various forms of texts by the artist, including poetry and scripts for performance, as well as a series of intimate letters between Wa Lehulere and a friend, curator/writer Khwezi Gule, and an interview conducted by Hans Ulrich Obrist.
