| For
the past years I have been photographing rituals and events around
my city, Durban and other parts of the country. These include Christian,
Hindu, Jewish, Islamic faiths, practices linked to ancestral veneration
and the New Age movement. My approach has been to allow the camera
to narrate the journey of spirituality, following a diversity of
events and rituals that in some way reflects The Moving Spirit,
running through my country and Southern Africa. I, too, with or
without my camera, am part of a country trying to heal. In this
journey I join millions of South Africans continuously on a pilgrimage
beyond politics and platitudes….in search of the transcendent
spirit.
