 Niroxprojects. 2013. softcover, original, 28 pages, black & white full page portrait photographic imagery, 20.8 cms x 20.8 cms, condition: as new.

Kittys Photographic Studio in Pietermaritzburg generated 1409 negatives between 1972 and 1984. Poor and working-class patrons African, Indian and coloured came there to be photographed by Singarum Jeevaruthnam Moodley (1922-1987), a.k.a. Kitty, and members of his family.

Dr.Steven Dubin, the Columbia sociologist and curator and good friend of South Africa was interested in the social construction of the studio portrait in essentially a european setting, that is the professional photographic studio, and this 'book'  accompanied the 2013 photographic exhibition is an eloquent  monument to the enquiry.
