SCAD deFINE ART honoree Zanele Muholi

 

SCAD deFINE ART honoree Zanele Muholi joins arts advocate Phyllis Hollis for a conversation illuminating their boundary-pushing practice. An esteemed artist whose work explores notions of identity, community, and advocacy, Muholi recognizes the complex lived experiences of Black queer individuals. Through striking photographs, film, and sculpture, the artist reenvisions representation, offering an empathetic and emboldened perspective of the human condition.

Presenting the SCAD deFINE ART 2025 honoree conversation in connection with their exhibition Zanele Muholi at the SCAD Museum of Art, the artist will delve into their life and creative process, highlighting landmark bodies of work including the ongoing series Faces and Phases, Brave Beauties, and Somnyama Ngonyama (Hail the Dark Lioness). The conversation will reflect on the artist’s motivations as a self-described “visual activist” and their lifelong mission to platform marginalized people.

This event is free and open to the public and presented as part of SCAD deFINE ART 2025.
