Notes : According to Turiya Magadlela, ‘the work is actually part of a series named after a struggle song, which is a love song about beauty, written by Khaya Mahlangu. South Africa has a tendency of neglecting its legacy, its history and the people that created it. I am concerned with these issues, and in a small way I want to restore gaps in our cultural history using my work. And again alluding to the philosophy that ultimately whatever art is saying it must be beautiful’.1 Ubuhle bakho bufana ne langa, liphuma...Ngizokuthanda ngasosonke isikhathi, ngoba wena ulithemba lam’ ngithembise ukuthi, nakuwe koba njalo, wen’ungowam ... Your beauty is like the sun rising ... I will love you till the end of time, because, you are my only hope, promise me that you will feel the same ... you belong to me …
