Signage: | Nirupa Sing’s Get Up, Stand Up! reflects on life under apartheid through a surreal scene. A mud-red and blue San rock art foreground anchors layered imagery: a mineworker, dancing woman, elephants, tribal patterns, water, gears, and architecture; merging illusion and reality in a symbolic call for resilience and shared humanity. |
