The William Kentridge exhibition at the Royal Academy, showcased a wide variety of the South African Artists work, presenting different mediums. 

All of the work portrayed deep emotion, communicating the political scars of South Africa’s apartheid regime and the land powers of the west. 

Having dominant knocking sounds accompanying the film pieces, added a stronger emotional effect and really immersed the audience in the viewing. Sound is not often considered to incorporate in to interior design, however as seen in the Kentridge it can add further dimensions to a space. 

The tapestries which Kentridge began producing in 2001, showcased the perilous journeys that migrants undertake for a better chance in life. Interestingly, the images on the tapestries are the static version of those shown in Kentridge’s films. This links to how different components within an interior space can be connected to one another or be a juxtaposition through shape, colour and texture.

“Enough of this Scandal” 2020, is a large scale Indian Ink artwork painted on to found newspaper. This piece really stood out, mainly due to the presence it created within the exhibition. The idea of reusing materials or objects effectively in an opposite way from their intended use offers wide scope in interior design.
