<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>A critical conversation amongst three creative friends Masimba Hwati, Baynham Goredema, and Ryan Chokureva based on Masimba's Solo Exhibition, Sokunge (As if) held in Johannesburg, November 2019. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"Sokunge/As if ". "Sokunge", is a Shona word that describes phenomena that is intrinsically something else other than their appearance. More like deception or dissimulation of form, concept, or sound. In this exhibition, I was looking at forms that appear as something, but upon a closer look, they reference a lot of other things, more like below the surface politics. That is the relationship between hidden and exposed transcripts, it is the subtext, the micro politics. There's a lot of mingling of symbolism in the work itself and layered aesthetics.</p>
