๐˜ž๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ž๐˜ฆ ๐˜‰๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ explores how a sense of self is formed through place, family, cultural inheritance and lived experience. Here, identity is not fixed but always in progress.

The African mask recurs across the faces of Landuโ€™s figures. Drawn from his Congolese heritage, it carries culture into the present. โ€œLiving in South Africa has placed my experience of selfhood within a space of cultural negotiation,โ€ says Landu. The mask hides the individual face while revealing another dimension of the figure, one in which ancestry, memory and personal experience coexist.

WORLDART is pleased to present
๐˜ž๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ž๐˜ฆ ๐˜‰๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ, a solo exhibition of new work by Congolese-born, South African-based artist Tusevo Landu. The exhibition opens on Thursday, 1 October and runs until Thursday, 29 October 2026 at the galleryโ€™s Long Street space in Cape Town.

โ€œ๐˜ž๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ž๐˜ฆ ๐˜‰๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ explores how identity is shaped by place, family, cultural inheritance, and lived experience. The African masks across the figures draw from my Congolese heritage, reflecting the negotiation between inherited culture and life in South Africa. They obscure the face while revealing ancestry, memory, and identity.

Shade cloth connects the work to my motherโ€™s labour as a tailor, where it was used to create temporary spaces at flea markets. Its porous structure-protecting while remaining open-becomes a metaphor for belonging, vulnerability, and transformation. Through layered oil paintings, I explore becoming as an ongoing process: shaped by what we inherit, what we experience, and what we carry forward.โ€
