Norval Foundation Exhibition: Umkhangu/Birthmark
South African artist Sthenjwa Luthuli is set to deliver his first institutional solo show at the Norval Foundation, where he will explore memory, ancestry and African spirituality through detailed prints and wood reliefs.

Luthuli will also host a public walkabout on Saturday, September 13, for those who want to learn more about his work.
Where: Norval Foundation, 4 Steenberg Road, Tokai.
When: Runs until January 10.
