Gates of Hell by Fana Tshabalala

---

Beyond every point is a sense of discovery and what we discover at one point in time determines our perception of future discoveries. Therefore it is our past experience that fully allows us to appreciate the future we discover\; resulting in a change of direction both physically and mentally. Two souls find themselves beyond and within the unknown, where vision is limited and language foreign. This is a place where discovery transforms humanity and revolutionises self - a place of familiarity and exploration.
