This triptych is a homage to certain homeless people that lived in my neighbourhood in the centre of Cape Town. They live a life without privacy but still are overlooked or ignored and thus become just another part of the city’s architectural fabric. Installed above eye level, they loom down onto the viewer like weathered gargoyles on old architecture, creating a disconcerting role reversal, demanding to be seen.
