'Last summer, South African photographer and film-maker @KristinLeeMoolman and Sierra Leone-born, London-based stylist Ib Kamara caused a stir with their work 2026. Part of the group show Utopian Voices Here & Now at London’s Somerset House, the series forecast a masculinity, told through clothing, that sought to confront stereotypes of gender, race, self-expression and the body. Media coverage and the show’s curator Shonagh Marshall cast the duo as part of a movement of young creatives from Africa and the African diaspora, who are producing game-changing work centred on identity and, specifically, what it means to be African.
2026 is typical of Moolman’s work – playful and naturalistic, putting the subject first and oozing style and sass. “The dual nature of photography fascinates me most – documentation and fabrication,” she says. “As a photographer you have the ability to truthfully capture a person, place or moment of time as it was, but you also have the ability to fabricate and create whichever reality you choose to.” She has also said that her work isn’t intentionally political, but the ideological shifts that came about with the end of apartheid, which she experienced, may well have been an influence. Moolman was born in the late 1980s in the Karoo, a semi-desert region in South Africa. Now based in Johannesburg, she is inspired by the city’s residents – photographing friends, people she has met through social media and those she casts from the street – giving her work an unmistakable sense of ‘realness’.
