I THINK I’M NO LONGER AN ARTIST: CONVERSATIONSWhat does it really take to survive as an independent artist?
Join us for a public panel discussion that confronts the often-unseen realities of independent artistic practice in South Africa. This conversation opens space to reflect on hidden labour,
burnout, precarity, identity crises, and the systemic pressures that shape how artists live and work today.
Inspired by Tsholofelo Ndaba’s 24-hour durational performance I Think I’m No Longer an Artist, the panel invites artists, cultural workers, and the public into an honest exchange about survival, sustainability, and what it means to continue creating under increasingly demanding conditions.
