Kagiso Pat Mautloa is a thoroughly urban person, well attuned to the cityscapes of Johannesburg. He walks daily from his home in Alexandra township across town through shifting neighborhoods to his Fordsburg studio at the Bag Factory. The urban environment with all its clutter, dislocation, noise and motion is the wellspring from which his creativity emerges. His assemblages and installations incorporate the detritus of urban life and speak to the city spaces and the inhabitants who occupy these mean streets. Taxi is a series of titles on contemporary South African artists, initiated in 1999 by the French Institute of South Africa (IFAS). The series aims to extend the profile of South African Artists both locally and abroad.
