From the publisher:

“French photographer Cyprien Clément-Delmas and South African photographer Lindokuhle Sobekwa have collaborated to create a portrait of Daleside, a small and isolated Afrikaner suburb south-east of Johannesburg. The two photographers met through the Of Soul and Joy programme, launched by Rubis Mécénat in Thokoza, and became friends. Their resulting images provide a counterpoint of aspirations and distress – looking beyond the deep-seated Black/white binary, they depict the poverty afflicting Black and white residents alike as forgotten members of society.”

Bound in two separate yet corresponding volumes held together by a shared cover, the images in Daleside are accompanied by forewords from the respective photographers and an essay by Sean O’Toole.

Selected images from Daleside were exhibited in Mikhael Subotzky and Lindokuhle Sobekwa's Tell It to the Mountains in A4's gallery in October 2021.
