In his Processing Lockdown series, Lindokuhle Sobekwa uses collage and juxtaposition to make sense of the Covid-19 pandemic and its resultant restrictions and lockdowns. “I have been recording daily life,” Sobekwa said, “how people are dealing with the difficulties and anxiety that is brought by the pandemic.” Taken from the artist's notebook, each collage experiments in connecting the images that would later inform his installation Mthimkulu II in A4’s Gallery.   

Each of these process works recalls people and events close to Lindokuhle.
