Cultural and passive resistance
Part of EXHIBITIONS BY AFRAPIX
The photographs were used for an Afrapix exhibition entitled "Domestic Workers", with photographs by Giselle Wulfsohn, Paul Weinberg, Santu Mofokeng, Dave Hartman and Guy Tillim.
They are images of domestic workers at work, during their time off, in their own homes, and attending Centres where they learned sewing and other skills. Also included are photos of meetings of the South African Domestic Workers Union (SADWU), which was formed in November 1986, combining five domestic workers unions to one strong national trade union.
