This group exhibition showcased the work of photographers from the Ignite Photographic Club, each interpreting the theme “HOPE” through their unique lens. Grace Remondo presented a striking body of work featuring street dancers captured in motion and hand-painted with chalk stick. Her series revealed the quiet courage it takes to perform in public spaces—where movement becomes a plea, and each gesture carries the hope of recognition, reward, and release. The dancers vibrate with emotion, inviting viewers into a dialogue of resilience and longing.

Grace Remondo unveiled her first completed collection, The Story I’ll Tell, at the Cape Town Art Gallery. This emotionally charged exhibition explored themes of menstruation, motherhood, and societal stress—inviting reflection through abstract and visual poetry. The event featured a talk by Mrs. Kady Stoffels, Bold South Africa pageant, who shared her personal journey through depression and period poverty. Guests were also offered free health checks by Keready. Alongside the exhibition, Grace led a creative workshop on the theme of “Expression,” welcoming young students into a space of introspection and voice.

“The Story I’ll Tell” is a series of images exploring two narratives: “Life Around Menstruation”, which delves into the emotional effects of menstruation and motherhood on women, and “A Man Under Pressure”, which examines the stress faced by men in society.
