Tumelo Mtimkhulu (born 29 May 2001) is a South African writer, poet and visual artist born in Germiston, Johannesburg. He is part of the 2022 TAF Unearthed programme.
What sort of training have you received and how important do you think it is to seek training (in terms of learning first principles and refining technique)?
I am currently completing my final year as a BA Visual Art undergraduate at the University of Johannesburg. As I didn’t study art in any professional capacity prior to pursuing this degree, this is the only training I have received and I have thus far seen the importance of refining the conceptual underpinning of my work as well as my technical abilities. I think it is extremely important to seek training, as one has to first learn the basics of making in order for one to carve out their own distinct way of making and visual vocabulary.
What is your principal medium, and why did you choose it?
I move between drawing and printmaking (etching) on plaster of Paris. I like how closely related yet somewhat dissimilar these disciplines are, because drawing is like thinking in that the drawing changes the more you work on it, as thoughts are wont to do. However, printmaking is more of a meditative process, from how I prepare the etching plate to how I eventually etch each layer. I draw on plaster of Paris bandages and print with/on plaster of Paris. I am particularly drawn to plaster because of how malleable it is as a material, be it drawing, printmaking or sculpture.
Describe the techniques you use most? How complicated are your methods, and why is each step necessary?
For drawing, I have to cut and place each layer of the plaster bandages individually and leave them to dry overnight. If I start drawing on them while they’re wet, the drawing will simply look like a blob of grey dirt. For printmaking, I have to ensure that I mix a perfect plaster mix because if there is an imbalance in the plaster to water ratio, the plaster will take longer than needed to cure. I think it would be safe to say that my use of plaster is an exercise on patience.
What technological tools do you use in your work?
I am quite traditional in what I use to make art – usually drawing ink and charcoal on plaster of Paris.
Who is the single other artist whose style you most admire, and why?
I draw a lot from other forms of art, so picking one artist seems unfair to the host of other artists who I am drawn to, but I would say that the films of Andrei Tarkovsky hold a special place in my heart. His artistic expression showed me the importance of honestly expressing oneself, which is why I still champion the somewhat romantic idea that honest art can help dissolve all kinds of borders that exist between human beings. Neo Muyanga once said that: “Art cannot clobber a government into submission”, and I do agree. However, art does hold something within it that can speak honestly about the outside world and the world inside oneself.
Galleries and other traditional means are only one way of marketing art. What do you believe are the most important other routes, and what is the most important insight you have gained in that area in your career?
I think social media is a good way of putting yourself and your art out there as an artist, I say this because I found out about the TAF Unearthed programme through Instagram!
Why do you create? What are your stated goals in producing art?
I would be lying if I said that I fully know why I make art as it is an extremely spiritual process, but I do know that I make art to unburden myself and hopefully arrive at more profound regions of the self. It is a way of presenting myself honestly in a world that constantly seduces and encourages you not to.

My dear Sir---Yours of the 6th is received. I answer it only because I fear you would misconstrue my silence. What is our present condition?
We have just carried an election on principles fairly stated to the people. Now we are told in advance, the government shall be broken up, unless we surrender to those we have beaten, before we take the offices. In this they are either attempting to play upon us, or they are in dead earnest. Either way, if we surrender, it is the end of us, and of the government. They will repeat the experiment upon us ad libitum. A year will not pass, till we shall have to take Cuba as a condition upon which they will stay in the Union.
They now have the Constitution, under which we have lived over seventy years, and acts of Congress of their own framing, with no prospect of their being changed; and they can never have a more shallow pretext for breaking up the government, or extorting a compromise, than now. There is, in my judgment, but one compromise which would really settle the slavery question, and that would be a prohibition against acquiring any more territory.
Yours very truly,
A. LINCOLN.

Millbrook, New York
Reference number: 100004333
Innisfree is a public garden of approximately 200 acres, blending Japanese, Chinese, Modern, and ecological design principles in Millbrook, a rural area roughly in the center of Dutchess County, New York. Innisfree’s distinctive sloping, rocky landscape, which forms the literal and visual foundation for the garden, is set within a natural bowl wrapping around the 40-acre Tyrrel Lake. This bowl, with no other signs of human intervention visible beyond the garden, creates a profound sense of intimacy and privacy at Innisfree that is one of its defining characteristics. A product of postwar ideas in American landscape architecture, Innisfree merges the essence of Modernist and Romantic ideas with traditional Chinese and Japanese garden design principles in a form that evolved through subtle, sculptural handling of the site and slow, science-based manipulation of its ecology. The result is a distinctly American stroll garden organized around placemaking techniques used in ancient Chinese villa gardens and described as “cup gardens.”
Innisfree, one of the largest intact modern designed landscapes in America, is the masterwork of Lester Collins (1914-1993), a seminal figure in American twentieth century landscape architecture. Lester Collins, fellow of the American Society of Landscape Architects, was one of the most sought-after designers and influential educators of his generation. Innisfree’s design reflects the philosophies and practices that guided Collins’s approach throughout his career, integrates innovative, sometimes truly groundbreaking horticultural and environmental engineering practices, and embodies the distinctive characteristics of postwar Modernist landscape architecture.
Innisfree began as the private estate of Walter and Marion Beck, who started initial work on the garden during the early 1930s. Starting in 1938, they continued its development in collaboration with and under the direction of Lester Collins. In 1960, following the deaths of the Becks and pursuant to their wishes, Collins transformed Innisfree from a private estate garden into a substantially larger, more nuanced public garden. He ran the public
garden while continuing to gradually develop and transform the landscape until his death in 1993.
Innisfree demonstrates Collins’s focus on the experience of people in the landscape; his ability to respond adroitly to the particularities of site and program; his approach and aesthetics as a Modernist; his scholarly understanding of landscape history, particularly of Romantic, Chinese, and Japanese gardens; and his innovative use of scientific and engineering principles to develop an environmentally and economically sustainable landscape. Innisfree has long been a mecca for designers from all over the world and it is now attracting similar attention from the global horticultural
community.
The primary features of Innisfree’s design are its principal cup gardens (loosely understood as garden rooms), Tyrrel Lake, and the Lake Path. Collins used the unifying features of the lake and lake path to integrate the many cup gardens into one dynamic experience in the natural landscape. The cup gardens vary in form, scale, and materials. One is an organically shaped meadow bisected by a wildly meandering stream and dotted with sculptural rocks and specimen trees. Another is a bog garden that has been carefully but lightly managed so that a new plant community emerged to play a particular aesthetic role. One more still is an elaborate complex of rock terraces stepping down a slope, each with its own vocabulary of design, materials, and mood.
Throughout the garden, there are themes and motifs that recur in varied forms. There is a dynamic tension between what appears to be natural and what appears to be cultivated. At a macro scale, this is evidenced by the entirety of the garden itself emerging from apparent wooded wilderness. Undulating, almost surreal natural topography is echoed in the rounded forms of clipped trees and constructed berms. Tall, straight pine trunks are mirrored in a 60’ high fountain jet. Naturalistic bogs are discreetly cultivated while areas that look like traditional planted beds are allowed to evolve and change like native plant communities.
While there are some exceptional horticultural specimens at Innisfree, the vast majority of the plants are native or naturalized. Instead of labor-intensive maintenance to strictly adhere to a fixed planting plan, plants are encouraged to find locations where they thrive just as they do in the wild and then gently edited for aesthetics. Sometimes this is achieved simply by allowing plants to self-sow; sometimes by sowing seed or moving plants in from elsewhere on site to increase a successful population; sometimes by limited hybridization to develop strains that are more ideally suited to specific local conditions. As a result, the overall plantings at Innisfree have an unstudied visual character punctuated by a handful of carefully placed, carefully sculpted trees.
There is also a deliberate choreographing of human perceptual experiences throughout Innisfree. Collins paid particular attention to these ideas. Scale ranges from massive to intimate. Spaces are open and bright, or tight and shadowy. Surfaces vary in material, texture, slope, and sound. Water changes form, scale, and sound. Design and planting details are dense or spare.
Another important motif at Innisfree is sculptural landforms. Collins began to clear trees to reveal the undulating glacial landforms. Collins felt that “land shapes, both natural and man-made…separate but also knit together sequences of cup gardens. Just like the sculptural rocks, these land forms are permanent design features in the garden, for they do not grow and their health is not subject to vagaries.” In the 1970s and early 1980s, Collins created dramatic berms in the garden to echo and emphasize the natural landforms.
In the nearly 70 years since Innisfree opened to the public, the garden has delighted and captured the imagination of experts and non-experts alike. Garden lovers, landscape writers and critics have sought to capture the unique aesthetic qualities and unusual design sophistication of Innisfree in various descriptive terms.

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca: On entering a temple we assume all signs of reverence. How much more reverent then should we be before the heavenly bodies, the stars, the very nature of God!
John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.

The Pilates Approach of body conditioning called the group of muscles in our center or the core, likewise called the “powerhouse”. This includes our abdominal area, lower back, hips and butts. Inning accordance with Pilates, all energy required for the exercises begin with the powerhouse, then streams external to the extremities. The physical energy is then put in from the core to collaborate one’s motions. In this method, a strong and powerful structure is built on which to rely in everyday living.
While Pilates draws from a variety of varied workout designs, bringing the concepts of yoga, Greek and Roman perfects and Zen together, there are generally particular judgment concepts that are intrinsic to the Pilates Technique of body conditioning. These concepts are the ones that bring all those suitables together under the Pilates name. These consist of focusing, concentration, control, accuracy, breathing and streaming motion. Let’s have a look at these concepts one by one.
The Pilates Technique of body conditioning, established by the famous German nationwide Joseph Pilates, normally follows thoroughly set out concepts based upon a sound philosophical and theoretical structure. It is thought about throughout the world as a type of workout, there is really much more to the Pilates Approach of body conditioning than its being a workout. It is not simply a collection of workouts however a technique, established and fine-tuned over more than eighty years of usage and observation.
Concentration
Under this concept, the Pilates Approach of body conditioning needs you to focus on exactly what you are doing, all the time. Together with this, you need to likewise focus on your whole body. As soon as you begin actually to focus and focus to your body, you will discover a motion which might have appeared basic in the beginning glace, however really rather intricate.
Control
On its the majority of fundamental, the Pilates Approach of body conditioning teaches total muscle control. Careless and haphazard motions are not consisted of in this technique. Rather, extensive concentration is needs so that you will be in control of every element of every motion. It is essential to keep in mind that this 3rd concept does not just use to the big movements of limbs, however likewise to the position of fingers, toes and head, even the degree of arching or flatness of the back, the turning in or out of the legs, and the rotation of the wrists.
Accuracy
Every motion associated with the Pilates Approach of body conditioning has a function. Therefore, every guideline is seriously essential to the success of the entire. As exactly what lots of professionals frequently state, to leave out any information is to desert the intrinsic worth of the Pilates Technique of body conditioning. The primary focus here is on doing one exact and ideal motion, which might ultimately end up being force of habit and be rollovered into daily life as economy and grace of motion.
Breathing
Complete and extensive inhalation and exhalation become part of the Pilates Approach of body conditioning. Pilates, in the very first location, saw required exhalation as the secret to complete inhalation. Breathing should be done with concentration, control and accuracy. It ought to be appropriately collaborated with motion.
Fluidity
The Pilates Approach of body conditioning is carried out fluidly. There is no fixed, separated motion for that out bodies do not naturally work that method. Grace of movement should be highlighted over speed. Eventually, Pilates motions must feel as fluid as a waltz or a long stride. As exactly what the Pilates Approach of body conditioning keeps, evenly established muscles are the trick to excellent posture, natural grace and flexibility.

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.
Warren Stratford poly resin professions figurines. orn in Victoria, BC, Canada in July of 1965, Warren is a pioneer of highly detailed comic art.
He has adhered to fine art sculpting principles throughout his long career and is considered the most consistently representative comic sculpture in the world.
As a youth in the Fairfield area of Victoria, Warren was encouraged by a number of mentors and teachers to sculpt in the free-standing form, a practice he has never strayed from. One of his funniest memories was when he was a young and impressionable teenager in an advanced sculpting class. Warren was enthusiastic when the teacher said they were going to sculpt a live model one evening. He was not quite prepared as the beautiful woman completely disrobed on the stage in front of the students. Being the shy, youngest member of the class he quickly turned around and sculptured a very long haired woman rising out of a rock at the waist. The model was not pleased with his work but the teacher loved it!
warren stratfordWarren soon began to concern himself with his lifelong objective: portraying the variations of humor and atmosphere brought on by comical things he thinks about. Rather than copy others as was the traditional practice of young artists, Warren learned from people around him, from the landscape itself, and from the works of his older contemporaries. Warren’s representation of humor are based on his observations of people he meets and interviews.
He often shows natural color by breaking it down into its different components as a prism does. Eliminating dull and boring from his palette, Warren rejected entirely the academic approach to comic sculpting.
Warren gIn the Signature Series Warren allows his vision of light to dissolve the real structures of his subjects. To do this he chose simple subjects, making several humorous studies of the same subject at different occupations or activities.
Warren shares his time between Asia and his home town Victoria. Look for more Signature Series as Warren is always finding humor wherever he goes.
Warren’s work is particularly well represented in shops around the world. It is also included in many famous private collections.
There is a very famous scene in the recent Hollywood version of Pride and Prejudice in which Miss Elizabeth Bennett confronts Mr. Darcy with his meddlesome and proud actions and dismisses out of hand his awkward and bumbling proposal of marriage. This is a very dramatic scene, there is rain and Darcy is breathless and surprised by her refusal. And despite their fury with one another, they really almost kiss. Here are six holiday reasons why I object to this version of Pride and Prejudice. 1) Despite a tendency to walk through mud in long skirts, there is no way a Regency woman in possession of her senses would run out into the rain in a linen dress. She would imagine she could get sick doing that and she would definitely wreck the dress. 2) At no time in the book at any point did she kiss Darcy. Not when she was angry. Not when she was surprised. Not when she was wet. Not in a car not on a train, not in a tunnel not in the rain. Not at all. Vexing. 3) Why is her hair down? Where was her mother when she got dressed this morning? Did she not just come from CHURCH! Scandalous. 4) Mr. Darcy was completely out of line proposing to her: everyone knows you can't trust anyone who has ever been in MI5. 5) this feeds into a very aggravating gender stereotype which implies that women, when they are angry, do not know they minds or cannot control the animal magnetism of men. In fact, in this scene Jane Austen was making the point that a women - even one attracted to a man and who would benefit from a union with him - can and should stand in her principles and not be guided by stupid materialism or social expectations. Jane Austen > Hollywood, and 6) SHUT UP, Colin Firth is the BOMB, period. What, you may be wondering, does that have to do the with this picture? The infamous scene takes place in a follie which is a much cooler building than this dopey gazebo n Christmas Town, but very few people use the word correctly. Also vexing.
I chose this image for the principle of design: unity because the image flows together and combines all the shapes into one image.
ANCHORING GENDER AND HUMAN RIGHTS PRINCIPLES IN POLICIES FOR A SUSTAINABLE AND EFFECTIVE HIV RESPONSE
For a national agency such as NACA coordinating various activities of HIV/AIDS in Nigeria, information is key in the assessment and determination of a country’s level of success and gaps in the continued fight to end the HIV and TB epidemics. It is also key in informing the development of strategies or review of policies and frameworks to counter approaches that are not working and to increase the impact of interventions in the response.
This is one of the reasons why Dr. Yinka Falola-Anoemuah, the Deputy Director, in charge of Gender, Human Rights and Care Support Services at the National Agency for Control of AIDS appreciates the wealth of information, experiences and networks gained from participating in the capacity building programmes for health workers, law enforcement officers, parliamentarians, lawyers, judges and human rights institutions made possible by the Africa Regional Grant on HIV: Removing Legal Barriers. It is a multi-year grant supported by the Global Fund and implemented by UNDP that addresses human rights barriers faced by vulnerable communities in 10 countries.
“The regional forums have allowed me to learn from what other countries are doing, reflect on the situation in my country, and identify ways of pulling everybody to work together,” said Yinka.
The biggest hurdle for NACA at the onset was to establish the relevance of gender, human rights and its impact on the HIV response. This was in an environment challenged with the lack of understanding and the general fear around key populations due to the criminalizing laws like the Same-Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Act of 2013. “This law gives people fear that they shouldn't work with this population as they are not recognized within the system. This is in addition to a lot of social, cultural and religious biases and stereotypes that people bring on board,” she says.
In addition, the institution lacked funding, tools and skills to build the capacity of various stakeholders to understand issues affecting key and vulnerable populations and the impact on the HIV response. Moreover, the existing Gender Technical Working Group was not very robust in terms of bringing in all significant stakeholders.
When Yinka joined NACA, they began by building the capacity of stakeholders internally to appreciate the issues on gender, human rights, and vulnerable populations and the subsequent impact these issues had on the progress made to achieve the targets. “From there, we identified other stakeholders, who included the health workers coordinated by Ministry of Health and other leaders at the federal level,” said Yinka.
NACA’s initial attempts to get the Ministry of Health on board the gender working group was not very successful as the representative did not appreciate the impact of stigma from health workers on the patient community especially women and key populations. “We need to have within us frameworks, policies, training manuals on what stigma is, what gender issues are and how to put them into consideration as we plan for the sector and then in training healthcare professionals to ensure they get into the system while appreciating the critical issues at hand,” Yinka had explained.
They experienced similar challenges in trying to advocate for the same issues among parliamentarians. However, thanks to the regional training under the Africa Regional Grant on HIV, several Federal and State Parliamentarians have benefitted from capacity building trainings. This turned NACA’s interventions around and has resulted in having champions amongst the leaders with a better understanding of the importance of gender and human rights in HIV and TB programming. They have helped to facilitate increases in health budgets. Besides, Nigerian key populations themselves are benefiting because they are also part of the regional capacity-building efforts and have been given a space for dialogue with stakeholders.
“The engagements with Enda Santé and the parliamentarians was a very good one for me. Some of our parliamentarians also participated at KELIN’s training. In-country, we were not talking to ourselves so we didn’t fully understand the challenges facing the response. Bringing diverse and relevant stakeholders, working together to achieve the same results at a regional level was very instrumental for me. We all saw how other countries were making progress. That was the first time I met somebody from the Senate and we were able to talk at that level. That is how we established a relationship, outside Nigeria, at the airport, going for a regional meeting. And then we took the spirit back home,” Yinka reflected.
Having parliamentarians as champions for the response has translated to a lot of gains. “Even the increase in the budget appropriation that we had was the result of these efforts. The first year, they gave us more than what we requested. We were used to having no money. So by the time he understood it, he was able to mobilize his colleagues and they put money for gender and human rights work. And that was a very strong achievement for me,” she said. They are now looking at ways to build the capacity of more clerks of the House of Representative and clerks of the Senate to ensure the sustainability of the progress made as some of the leaders move to different roles in the course of their political careers.
NACA also leveraged other platforms such as the technical working groups within the Ministry of Health (treatment and testing groups) and trained them on gender and human rights matters captured within the strategic frameworks, as the core principles of business so they could start integrating the best practices at that level within their work. A change in the leadership at the Ministry also helped with the advancement of the interventions.
Also, they leveraged existing resources to demonstrate the value for gender and human rights mainstreaming in the country’s response. For example, a 2013 gender assessment of the response was timely to help NACA seek a stronger commitment from the Ministry of Health and served as an advocacy tool that demonstrated the existing issues that needed to be addressed. This culminated with the ministry coming onboard the Gender and Human Rights Technical Working Group.
The working group now brings all stakeholders including community members, women, and key populations to articulate their issues to inform interventions. NACA builds its capacity to engage with policymakers and stakeholders. The group serves as a gender team for health response and other sectors. “They are making a lot of progress. In August 2019, they looked at the National Health Policy and they now have a document that we call Gender in Health following a validation meeting. The document integrates issues of left out populations, like key populations because our team was with them to ensure that was achieved,” noted Yinka. The human rights-based approach elements have also been integrated into the National HIV AIDS Community Care and Support Guidelines to give guidance on what aspects of the HIV response need to be implemented outside the health facilities in a bid to address structural issues impacting on HIV and TB in the country.
On another level, the regional engagements provided an opportunity to strengthen the access to justice for affected vulnerable communities, experiencing stigma and discrimination due to their HIV status. NACA works with lawyers who participated in the KELIN and the Enda Santé trainings. “We were able to form them into a coalition that provides pro bono services to cases of stigma and discrimination. When people stigmatize, it is a lack of understanding of the science of HIV. Despite challenges around resourcing and availability for court appearances, we have some successes and are trying to document some of the cases that have achieved success in court. As a result of the massive campaign around stigma and discrimination, some of the cases are resolved out of court through mediation. We're trying to document that as well,” Yinka explained.
Together with the Global Fund, UNDP is working with four leading African civil society organizations — the AIDS and Rights Alliance for Southern Africa, ENDA Santé, KELIN, and the Southern Africa Litigation Centre — through the Africa Regional Grant on HIV to address human rights barriers faced by vulnerable communities in Africa, and facilitate access to lifesaving health care. The programme aims to remove legal and policy barriers by providing documentation of human rights violations, advocacy support, strategic litigation and capacity strengthening for key stakeholders. At the regional level, the project provides intensive capacity strengthening opportunities for key stakeholders, like Dr. Yinka Falola, who will escalate the gained knowledge to impact the HIV and TB response in their countries and communities. The countries include Botswana, Cote D’Ivoire, Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, Senegal, Seychelles, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia.
“The insight gained has helped us to harness some of the resources and opportunities we didn't know we have within us and now we work together. Institutionalizing the human rights-based approach means sustainability, because the moment that it is there within the government, it means all the officers including the younger officers are part of this and they are mentored and it becomes a system and that's the kind of system I think we need in Africa to address arising challenges in a sustainable manner. Thank you to the project for helping us put that together,” Yinka concludes.
