Trigger Warning: This episode contains conversation around gender based violence.

Lauren Theunissen, Orms Cape Town School of Photography lecturer, curator and artist takes the reigns and hosts Orms Circle 2019 Artist Yonela Makoba in conversation.

Join the conversation and gain an inside look into the Orms Circle Mentorship Programme from the view of two of the selected mentors. Discover the full mentor force behind the Orms Circle Mentorship Programme on the Orms Connect Blog here.

Yonela talks to her application to the inaugural Orms Circle Mentorship Programme 2019 and how discovering boundaries within her own experience allowed her to conceptualise her proposal for submission. From there she went on to create an entirely different body of work through the programme to produce a body of work for exhibition in collaboration with Orms at the FORM building in February 2019.

Join the conversation to learn more about how the Orms Circle Mentorship Programme influenced Yonela's process, her understanding of who she is, how she creates and lots of giggles as we're taken on the journey.
