Brincat to host historical exhibition

The exhibition dubbed ‘The Promised Land’, tells the birth of Botswana in nativity style that is similar to the birth story of Jesus in the second testament. The exhibition has 13 pieces of photography. “The photography collection has been conceptualised in a way which tell the birth of the country similar to Jesus’ birth, for instance we have the three wise men that are represented by the three chiefs. We also have Joseph and Merry being represented by Ruth and Seretse,” said the photographer and director of The Promised Land.   In simple terms he took the Botswana story and conceptualised it to look similar to the Bible story through a photography exhibition.

Through this project he stated that this was a way of celebrating Botswana, as he was inspired by a number of people that painted rocks and trees with Botswana colours last year when the country was celebrating 50 years of independence.
