Sho’t Left: Celebrating South African Occupations

South African illustrator Karabo Poppy Molestane was inspired by the working people of Pretoria. She created a Zine that showcased the working life of many people in South Africa.

I took a trip to Church Square (Pretoria Central Business District) and interviewed people I met about their occupation and the tools they use. I came across a taxi driver, a peace officer, a hairdresser and a few “Skhotanes”. The purpose of this zine was to display how unique and different South African occupations are and to inform readers about the exciting facts, tools, people, colour and culture one may encounter when riding in Proudly South African taxi.
