About the Residency
Sabelo Mlangeni Amant Residency New York Fall 2025. Sabelo Mlangeni works largely in black and white format, building his practice around intimate photographs that draw out inherent beauty in the ordinary. His practice centers on notions of community and communing, requiring him to spend significant time—weeks, months, sometimes years—with those he photographs, sharing intimately in their thoughts, feelings, stories and everyday lives.
Artist Background
Mlangeni has had numerous solo exhibitions including Imvuselelo: The revival at Cantor Arts Center in Stanford (2023) and Ngiyabona Phambli at the Institute of Ideas & Imagination in Paris (2023).
