| Signage: | The work was inspired by the environment of the Constitutional Court and the history of its site. A diverse African group gathers around Constitutional Hill and are overlooked by the towers of the precinct. The artist pays homage to the relentless African spirit, he says “from the fires of apartheid we rose, and we are a better tomorrow, today”. |
