| Signage: | Woven fabric banner, produced in collaboration with weavers Maureen Mthalane and Agnes Zuma, designed as part of the Court Chamber interior and drawing on the concept of “justice under a tree” through shadow-like forms derived from natural light patterns. Suspended at varying angles, each banner functions both as an architectural intervention and as an acoustic regulator, reducing reverberation and supporting clarity of speech within the chamber. The work is produced through collaborative making between Andrew Verster and community weavers, embedding collective craft within the spatial and symbolic fabric of the Court. |
