All Roads Lead Home – Paul Pinga Matareke
Mondays to Saturdays, 9:30am to 5:30pm Sundays, 9:30am to 2:30pm Tuesday 29 April to Friday 9 May Except Saturday 3 May
All roads lead home is a series taken during a road trip across Zimbabwe in late 2024 – the fifteen year anniversary of my emigration to Australia.
I realised that I was leaving home to go home. To see relatives, to explore new parts of the country that I left as a child, to return. This transnational back and forth will repeat throughout my life. My feet stand at once in two worlds, each with its own colonial legacy.
