Notes
"Ncaphayi brings into colour so much of what we cannot usually say in words. Music has always been fundamental to Mongezi Ncaphayi’s practice. But his works are not a reaction to music. They are a reaction to a feeling. His approach to artmaking is full-bodied. Fully embodied. Each artwork remains as a testimony to unfurled emotion."—Olivia Barrell1
