Michelle Sank’s Ballade series documents the vibrant fabric of Cape Town’s emblematic Sea Point Promenade, offering an exploration and celebration of its rich socio-economic, racial, and gender diversity. Through her deeply evocative portraiture, Sank highlights the fundamental interplay of identity, place, and community while painting a compelling narrative of the Promenade’s not only historical, but autobiographical significance.

The exhibition will be on view until 12th of April and it is available to visit from Wednesday to Saturday (13.00 to 18.00) or by appointment.
