A WHOLE 30 YR OLD | 06/01/2021 | 📸 @themba_mbuyisa | "A photographer, filmmaker, project space founder... It's been a lonely, happy, depressing, broke, sometimes monied journey. Almost died, twice! 01/08/2018 & 12/12/2020 almost killed me, but I'm here still. I'm still in love with the process. My mom named me Nkosinathi (God is with us)... #photographersoninstagram #filmmaker #zuchihiroshima #zuchi #nkosinathikhumalo #nkosi #nathi #iphonephotography (at Orlando West, Killarney, Soweto) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJsJli9j2b1/?igshid=146q9w32lzlqs

Untitled | 2016 | Nkosinathi Khumalo | (from a continuous body of work titled: Death My Next Of Kin) | "Photographing my relatives' funerals began as a coping machanism. Not only did this become an important activity for me to do but it became a way for me to mourn. It also became a sense of spiritual connection with myself and my photography, cause a lot of these funerals involve a lot of spiritual customs that I got to photograph, witness and be a part of. I think the most important thing though with this work is that I got to personally create a lasting memory of relatives that have passed on.

Untitled | 2018 | Nkosinathi Khumalo | "It takes so much patience and endurance to became a good photographer here (it wants all of you not just pieces) then it takes so much for any sort of recognition to affirm your existence. At the end you just have to keep at it, it'll all be worthwhile one day". #zulurepublik #nkosinathikhumalo #zuchihiroshima #photography #filmphotography #conceptualphotography #contemporaryart #contemporyphotography #streetphotography #fineartphotography #fineart #bodyofwork (at ZULU Republik) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_PZxmADkrv/?igshid=1dfivw04gayoa
