A Day in the Life of Jabu Newman
With all eyes on South African creativity at the Loeries, the Groundglass director welcomes us into her world.
08.00: When I wake, I go to my balcony and pretend to admire the beautiful Table Mountain when I'm usually just spying on my neighbours.
09.00: A shelfie, which don't think does my bookshelf justice - I like looking at all the books I haven't read while eating breakfast.
10.00: And then I might actually read a chapter on my throne. Zadie Smith is basically the only author I read.
10.30: And then I'm off...
... to pick up the posters for my new film series, The Foxy Five, which is currently screening at the Bioscope Cinema in Johannesburg.
12.30: On the way to Postnet to send off the package, I spot some dodgy "art".
15.00: Pretending to work at a coffee shop. Pinocchio looks down on me censoriously as I continuously scroll Facebook.
16.15: My friend Yoza sends me a pic of a Foxy Five poster she's putting up around Johannesburg.
16.30: And my friend in New Zealand shows me my photograph being displayed in a clothing store.
18.00: When I get home, more new prints have arrived!
