MAZARS WOMEN'S MONTH EVENT

Exploring roles assigned to men and women in society

In light of the Women's Month 2019, Mazars is organizing the exclusive  'Still Figuring Out What it Means to be a Man' multimedia exhibition and the exciting debate on patriarchy, exploring on the role assigned to men and women in our societies!

Initiated in 2013, "Still Figuring Out" explores the experiences of six middle-class, metropolitan South African men in their thirties. From creative and social entrepreneurs to film-makers to conflict journalists-turned-eco-farmers, these men reflect on their masculinities, exploring issues such as love, impacts of apartheid and colonialism, sexuality and sexual conditioning, gender-based violence, success, fatherhood, and spirituality.

Rather than a piece of research or comprehensive analysis of masculinity, this audiovisual project is an ongoing artistic exploration which seeks both to explore and deconstruct. »
