This is the artist’s second solo exhibition with SMAC Gallery — her first in Johannesbu­rg. The title is a play on Not I, a monologue written in 1972 by Samuel Beckett, in which a disembodie­d mouth utters jumbled sentences at a ferocious pace. This separation of self is seen in Steyn’s paintings and ceramic sculptures, punctuated by dismembere­d body parts in bright pastels — often marking fragments of the human form and alluding to philosophi­cal ideas of divisions between the body and mind. Details: The exhibition is on at SMAC Gallery, 19 Keyes Avenue, Rosebank, Johannesbu­rg until November 11.

The film, which will be presented in a multiple-screen installati­on, is made up of three chapters. The event will include live music, DJ sets and performanc­es aimed at transporti­ng the visual and sonic narrative of the film into real life.
