People from the other town | Mense van die ander dorp | Abantu abavela kwenye idolophu
The artist grew up in Worcester in the Boland where communities would meet in the centre of town on Saturdays. When visiting Stellenbosch he found the same mood with people meeting, hugging, laughing, sharing news. The bench has four faces of different people surrounded by patterns and symbols of the Stellenbosch area.
Die kunstenaar het grootgeword in die Boland waar gemeenskappe mekaar op Saterdae in die middel van die dorp ontmoet het. Toe hy Stellenbosch besoek het, het hy dieselfde gees ervaar waar mense byeenkom, mekaar druk, lag, nuus deel. Die bankie het vier kante met verskillende mense omring deur patrone en simbole van die Stellenbosch-omgewing.
Umzobi wakhulela eWorcester eBoland apho uluntu bahlangana kumbindi wedolophu ngemiGqibelo. Xa wayetyelele eStellenbosch wafumana uhlobo olunye abantu behlangana, bewolana, behleka, yaye besbelana nendaba. Isitulo eside sinobuso babantu abane abahlukeneyo abangqongwe yimizobo nemiqondiso yommandla wasStellenbosch.
