Johannesburg has always been seen as a city of hope. This project shows the reality of the Yeoville Market, but also reflects the hopes and aspirations of its traders. The Market is a community of migrants, mostly economic migrants from all over Africa. It is a vibrant, colourful, often chaotic pan-African space. These images look at how people adapt to a new and foreign space, a space with different types of soil, food and cultures. How they utilize the market and what the Market signifies to the community.
