Abafazi BaseLwandle

Abafazi BaseLwandle examines the exploitation of seaweed pickers on the shores of the Eastern Cape by large-scale conglomerates. The conglomerates are symbolised by Umlungu Karen, who sits in the empire chair, overlooking the men and women who harvest seaweed. The vile nature of Umlungu Karen is underscored by seaweed crawling up her dress, which emphasises the greed and immorality of her business practices.
