Sophie, a sculptural figure, serves as an alter-ego for Sibande, exploring the black female body, post-colonial and post-apartheid South Africa, and the liminal space. Modeled after the artist herself and her family history, Sophie symbolically represents femininity, blackness, labor, and marginalized communities. She bridges the gap between history and modern life.
