My practical and theoretical research is informed by Johannesburg, the city in which I live. My thesis is positioned within postcolonial academic and theorist Homi K. Bhabhas theory of a Third Space and within South African academic, Colin Richards' theory of a graft that operates within an enculturated semiosphere. In this instance, I identify spaces in which a graft operates in the form of two examples: garments designed by Strangelove and Stoned Cherrie and selected suburban boundary walls in Parktown West, Westcliff, Houghton, Melville and Emmarentia. These two examples are used to argue whether a graft takes to open out a space for cultural difference or whether it does not take, thus closing off space. I understand my examples as hybrid forms and manifestations of identities in a process of redefinition in the context of postcolonial Johannesburg. My practical work explores manifestations of hybrid identities in my lived context, Johannesburg.
