Bongani Bingwa  speaks to Zanele Muholi, the acclaimed South African visual activist who has made history by becoming the first Black queer South African to win the prestigious Hasselblad Award. Widely regarded as one of the world’s most important photography honours, the award recognises Muholi’s powerful body of work documenting and celebrating Black LGBTQIA+ lives in South Africa and beyond. Their portraits challenge prejudice while preserving stories of identity, dignity and resistance. Later this year, Muholi’s work will also feature in a major solo exhibition in Sweden, marking another milestone in a career dedicated to visibility and social change.
