Portia Zvavahera at STEVENSON in Johannesburg

Once, at the height of the Zimbabwean economic crises, I heard a journalist friend describe a young woman in a Joburg bar as: ‘one of the orphans of Harare.’ Suddenly, from then on, her identity as a Zimbabwean born female became wrapped up with notions of tragedy in my imagination. I remembered that incident as I walked through the exhibition of Portia Zvavahera's work at the Stevenson Gallery’s Joburg premises.
