Contributors: Charles Shields, Zoë Hopkins, Misha Krynauw, Zaza Hlalethwa, Paula Nascimento and Lena Sulik.

Teresa Kutala Firmino is a multimedia artist now based in Johannesburg. She was born in 1993 to a Congolese father and an Angolan mother in Pomfret, a former asbestos mine camp-turned military base in the North West province where a group of former Angolan soldiers who fought for the South African National Defence Force’s infamous 32 Battalion were relocated at the end of the Border War (1989). Firmino's work negotiates the collective trauma of the Pomfret community.
