Contemporary African Art Fair

At Berman Contemporary’s booth for the 2025 edition of the 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair in New York, two powerful artistic voices, Hazel Mphande and Athenkosi Kwinana, share a space shaped by contemplation, confrontation, and care. Though working in different mediums, Mphande through photographic abstraction and Kwinana through figurative drawing, both artists delve into inner landscapes of trauma, memory, and identity. Their works reflect on the fragility of the human psyche and body, while asserting presence, resilience, and community.
