There's a lot happening at Kalashnikovv Gallery in September as Yolanda Mazwana presents a new body of work with her exhibition Read the room, along with new signings to the gallery who present their work, and Kalashnikovv open their new gallery space in Braamfontein (a short distance from their former space on Juta Street).

Mazwana uses symbolism and abstraction to explore mental illness, relationships and popular culture. Her work often has a strong storytelling component to it and these new paintings on canvas and paper continue in this vein.

Showing alongside it is the exhibition New Signings which features work by the newest artists to join the Kalashnikovv family. The new additions are: painter and photographer Charity Vilakazi, mixed media artist Boemo Dialle, collagist Mncedi Madolo and textile artist Tinyiko Makwakwa. Each push the art scene in different ways and fit with Kalashnikovv’s ethos of challenging art conventions.
