Usha Seejarim transforms household objects in Unfolding Servitude

THE STORY, IN BRIEF

Nolan Stevens reviewed Usha Seejarim’s Unfolding Servitude at Southern Guild in Cape Town for ArtThrob in April 2025. The exhibition repurposed clothes pegs, serving trays and ironing soleplates into sculptural forms. Stevens linked these material transformations to the artist’s examination of gendered expectations, domestic work and the often-unrecognised labour of care.
