Mbali Vilakazi

Mbali Vilakazi is an award-winning poet, performer, radio producer and creative facilitator based in Cape Town, South Africa.

Her practice is inspired and informed by the idea of ‘the personal as political’ and ‘the body as intervention’. Particular areas of interest include trauma and silence, women, young people, memory and myth-making. As both witness and participant, Mbali works with the specific intent to render visible the most invisible parts of our conversations, our communities and our humanity.
