In that time, he has seen subtle changes in one of the many ‘grey zones’ of Cape Town, where a growing number of peripheral characters—mainly poor whites and recent migrants into South Africa—seek to earn a living through trade in second-hand goods. Milnerton Market has emerged from Southwood’s intense engagement as a powerful record of a single community on the fringes of a society in flux.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn one hand,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eMilnerton Market\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003esimply bears witness to the hodgepodge life of things. But on the other, it explores the implications of the redistribution of resources by a new democratic government in the early 1990s, a process that did very little to alleviate the destitution of many. The geographic and symbolic ‘in-betweenness’ of the site of the market—it is not sea, not city, not industrial, not prime property—and of the vendors themselves, perched on rickety deck chairs, suggests an uncomfortable unity of political rhetoric and acceptable public memory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eL 150 x 120 cm edition 3 +1 a\/p\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eM 100 x 80 cm edition of 4 +1 a\/p\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eS 50 x 40 cm edition 2+1 a\/p\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArchival Inkjet on 300 GSM Hahnemuhle \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Southwood Prints","offers":[{"title":"Image size 150 x120 cm","offer_id":52918540763296,"sku":null,"price":1250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 x 80 cm","offer_id":52918542925984,"sku":null,"price":735.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Image size 50 x40 cm","offer_id":52918542958752,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0481\/1820\/2528\/files\/untitled20100718-16-custom.jpg?v=1760435994","url":"https:\/\/southwoodprints.com\/products\/milnerton-market-1999-2009","provider":"Southwood Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
