Jodi Bieber’s Soweto Bieber spent three months and 7 000km traveling though Soweto and taking photographs. She says of the project: “Once you start spending time in Soweto you realise how diverse and different we are as a nation. Soweto operates in a completely different way to the suburbs of Johannesburg. I found myself feeling envious of how people embrace public living. Children play on the pavements, soccer matches are being refereed in the streets, and adults are chatting or gossiping or flirting with neighbours, friends or lovers” (from Soweto published by Jacana 2010). Bieber is the winner of eight World Press Awards. 2015 August RJR 35 3
