Catalysed by George Hallett's photographic diptych Peter Clarke's Tongue (1976), a series of conversations and associations results in the selection of works. These range in theme and tone: from diaspora, exile, lassitude, and resignation to archipelagic or clustered networks of conserved ordinariness and joy. The classic South African novel, Between Two Worlds, published in 1979 by Miriam Thlali as Muriel at the Metropolitan, sits alongside the framed pieces.
