Artist Wim Botha chooses specific books reflecting human identity and immorality. “There is seldom a distinction to be drawn between the prominence of the concept and that of the medium. I work with materials central to mass consumerist applications, that are subsequently transformed in essence and meaning to a point at which material and concept becomes integrally interdependent.” -Wim Botha.
