Exploring South Africa through the lens of black and white photography is a profound exercise in capturing its strong sense of precarious unity and diversity. In Johannesburg's urban sprawl, monochrome frames reveal the stark contrasts of a city in constant movement, where historic architecture coexists with brutalist modernity. The Drakensberg mountains offer a serene interlude, where monochrome captures the timeless grandeur of nature's ancient formations.

Cape Town's iconic Table Mountain stands as a timeless sentinel in the background, while the people and cultures of the city shift and evolve.

In each locale, the absence of colour accentuates the passage of time and the ephemeral moments that make a journey unforgettable, bittersweet appreciation of transience.
