A Witness to the Silence
In South Africa, the statistics of Gender-Based Violence are a haunting clock: a woman is raped every 12 minutes. Twelve Fifty Nine marks that final, fragile minute of perceived safety before the cycle of violence repeats.
This work is a stark, unflinching confrontation with the "alarming silence" surrounding these figures. It represents the weight of the 12th minute—the heavy, suffocating shadow that hangs over the lives of women. It is an "absence" of justice, an "absence" of safety, and a call to never look away.
By naming this piece after the 12-minute interval, Grace Remondo transforms a landscape of shadow into a memorial. It is the foundation of the Inventory of Absence, documenting the trauma that necessitates the eventual "Rebuilt Horizon."
Theme: Social Justice & Witnessing (GBV Advocacy).
Medium: Museum-grade Giclée on 310gsm Archival Cotton Rag.
International: Tracked & Insured via premium courier.
Packaging: Shipped in eco-friendly, rigid protective packaging.
Artist’s Note: This is the signature piece of the series. Each print is hand-signed by the artist.
Delivery: Please allow 7–10 days for your order to be processed in the Cape Town studio.
