Notes
"In Moshekwa Langa's art, every inch of the picture plane is filled with what appears to be islands in a deep blue sea, land masses, deltas seen from an aerial perspective and annotated with lists of names, ideas, a world of never-never lands."
Sue Williamson (2009) South African Art Now. New York: Collins Design, an imprint of HarperCollins. Page 230.
