ABOUT THE ARTWORK
backstory: when I flew out to Japan in August 2023, I was not prepared at all for the monumental scale at which the Japanese have built their cities. their constructions are epic, to say the least. this portrait of Osaka – a tribute of sorts to Hiroshige’s sublime series on the seasons and landmarks of Edo – forms part of the collection of meditations that I shot during my visit. -— title: one hundred famous views: Sakishima Cosmo Tower, no. 42 (2023). edition: limited edition of 7 + 2AP, numbered and signed by the artist. medium: Giclée print on archival fine art cotton paper. paper size: 1189mm x 841mm (A0). print size: 1111mm x 741mm. —- project details: started after I returned to Cape Town at the close of 2018, ‘Light Written’ – or ‘Phōtos Graphōs’ – is an ongoing exploration of the art of photography, and of photography as art. initially captured on mountain walks and seaside strolls around the city, the work asks – in impressionistic, Fauve-esque tones; and with an aesthetic nod to the ukiyo-e print masters of the Edo period – where the boundaries of the photograph end and those of the painterly disciplines begin? more essentially, however, the series is simply a celebration of the sublime world that surrounds us and is magnificently written in light.

based in Tokyo, Kambani Ramano creates art – with words and with photographs – to celebrate beauty in the light of the human spirit and wonder in the heart of the world. of Venda and Nsenga descent (that is, of South African & Zambian parentage), Kambani took his first breaths in Johannesburg in the late eighties at the height of the apartheid crisis, a transition point in the country where many of the nation’s ossified boundaries were being profoundly ruptured and redrawn. it was in this context that his formative years played out: on the threshold of convergent cultures, social structures, and times—in liminal spaces where diverse modes and moments intersected – sometimes joyfully; sometimes less so – with one another. a foreigner to his native tongues and often an alien in many of the spaces he has found himself, Kambani has been very much a hybrid of the old world and the new. as such, this backdrop has saturated the colours of his artistic practice and has given almost graphic expression to his body of work, which, since the day he acquired his first SLR camera on a whim at age sixteen, has grown into an ongoing of exploration of the art of photography, and of photography as art.
