According to him, “I never planned on becoming a photographer.  It happened completely by accident. Ever since I was a small child, I always wanted to be an explorer, enjoying nothing better than just discovering something new. But what use is knowledge unless it is shared?”

The popular photographer explained that he carries cameras everywhere in order to capture the stories and immortalize images of people and places visited.

The second guest is Tumelo Mosaka, the popular curator who exhibits around the globe.

He will dwell extensively on contemporary African art.
