Dual exhibition by Banele Khoza and Sejiro Avoseh at TKE Studios in Margate.
Open Saturday & Sunday 1pm - 5pm
In this dual exhibition, Khoza and Avoseh explore themes of intimacy, identity, migration, and belonging—offering deeply personal reflections shaped by dislocation, desire, and the search for self.
Sejiro Avoseh
Sejiro Avoseh’s work is an evolving visual autobiography—an exploration of the psychological and emotional terrain shaped by migration and identity. Born in Lagos and now based in the UK, Avoseh creates charged compositions using painting and collage, weaving together fragmented figures, intuitive gestures, and layered surfaces.
His practice resists static identity, instead embracing the complexity of cultural dislocation and reinvention. Avoseh holds an MFA from the University for the Creative Arts, Canterbury, and his work has been shown at Kravets Wehby Gallery (New York), Afikaris Gallery (Paris), Jupiter Contemporary (Miami), and FNB Art Joburg.
Banele Khoza
Banele Khoza (b. 1994, eSwatini) is known for his tender, diaristic approach to painting and drawing. His work investigates queer identity, love, and vulnerability, blending fluid figuration with handwritten text and raw emotion.
Based in Johannesburg, Khoza is the founder of BKhz Gallery and a key figure in Southern Africa’s contemporary art scene. His work has been widely exhibited, including solo shows at Zeitz MOCAA, Goodman Gallery, and kunsthaus göttingen, and he continues to advocate for greater visibility and access within the art world.
