Isibaya

From the Internationally award nominated series Becoming South African.

Sanele photographed at his home in Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal. The image was shot after I had known Sanele for roughly a week. He invited me to his home to allow me to document and immerse myself in the Zulu culture. In his yard was a small 'isibaya' or kraal where the family slaughters livestock and uses the skin to make leather and other household items.
