Ep.16 Lazi Mathebula

LAZI MATHEBULA

For the 16th episode of “Stories By Artists”, brought to you by the Studio Nxumalo Podcast, I had the privilege of sitting down with Lazi Mathebula in his studio in Braamfontein, Johannesburg. Known for his innovative use of materials and keen exploration of themes that concern culture, Mathebula’s work has garnered critical and commercial success within the contemporary creative and design world. Lazi is currently on a well-thought-out and calculated trajectory of securing his space in the contemporary fine art world.  Raised in Alexandra, one of the oldest townships in South Africa, Mathebula tells me about his story, journey, and inspirations. Allow me to share this episode with you.
