Iqhawe Elingaphakathi kum’ (Shadow Pillar) is an African contemporary work; a thought provoking dance piece that addresses
and encourages the individuals who are about to give up in life to look deep within themselves for the unseen element that keeps
us rising up when we fall. In every religion or human belief, there is a pillar of strength to help us overcome the challenges and
obstacles that we come across. Our inner souls become our strength, the inner voices become our pillar and weapons to survive
and prevail in life. The unseen spirits that live within ourselves push us to our destination. We are who we are because of our pillars
