SUMMARY:Dwala Lam'
DESCRIPTION:World premiere of a CHRA digital commission\, featuring a Q&A with artist Sethembile Msezane and writer Dr. Portia Malatjie\, moderated by Panashe Chigumadzi and hosted by Wits School of Arts. \nPraise singing and movement is the celebration of presence. Dwala Lam’ is a praise song that reminds one of the groundedness that is inscribed in their ancestry. These inscriptions\, may come by way of being christened by a name that charts out your destiny\, creates relief\, a warm smile in a quiet moment or even conveys a message to the world. \nThe names that are often given in African cultures are the hopes and wishes of families that raise the bearer of the name. These names may be passed down through generations\, they may be whispered to an expecting mother in her sleep. The names become the accession of ancestry but they are also a reminder to the bearer of the name of their significance\, to remember this in good as well as challenging times. \nThe whispers of the praise songs from one’s ancestors are the protective spells that affirm us in the ebb and flow of life.
