Appropriated Landscapes explores the landscapes of Southern Africa, through photography and video from artists including David Goldblatt, Santu Mofokeng, Jo Ractliffe, Penny Siopis and Guy Tillim.

Landscape - both in Southern Africa and beyond - shows itself as ultimately a construct of the mind, composed as much from strata of memory as from layers of rock.
