Works featured in this exhibition include images from the series Homelands (2009-2011), Second Transition (2012) and Running (2013). In the Homeland series, Sekgala captured scenes from the former 'homeland' areas of Kwandebele and Bophuthatswana (part of the apartheid state's system of rural 'homelands' where only black South Africans lived) touching on the differences between the past and the future. In Second Transition he again visited the former homeland of Bophuthatswana to record the economic exclusion and ravaged landscape of the mining settlements in the Marikana region, while in the powerful series Running, he explored the conditions which create a feeling of home for those fleeing conflict and political and economic upheavals in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe and in Amman, Jordan.
