Thato Toeba

Thato Toeba is an emerging artist from Lesotho whose work intertwines the realms of art and law, exploring themes of memory, identity, and social justice through collage. With a background in legal studies and social science, Toeba's art critiques the narratives imposed by Western media on the Global South, using personal and archival images to challenge dominant discourses. Their solo exhibition, 'Phate lia Lekana,' reflects on duality and belonging, while their upcoming show at the Johannesburg Art Gallery aims to foster connections across cultures and experiences. Recognized as a 'quiet force' in contemporary art, Toeba is making significant contributions to the visual arts scene in Southern Africa.
