Between Zulu dance, contemporary choreography and hip hop, Constanza Macras loves to mix up the arts. On Fire is the resulting work of artists in residence over a lengthy period in Berlin and Johannesburg. How much were South African manners and customs influenced by Christianity or traditional beliefs? How did they evolve, from the colonial to the post-apartheid era? Amusing and political.
