Step into a powerful visual dialogue between identity, community, and place. CAPE TOWN SHIP, a photographic exhibition by belgian artist Jean-Luc VAN DAMME, captures intimate portraits and quiet strength from Cape Town’s townships  places too often defined from the outside.

Through each striking image, Jean-Luc VAN DAMME invites viewers to see beyond stereotype and surface, offering a celebration of individuality and presence rooted in lived experience. It’s an exhibition of dignity, of gaze met with gaze, and of beauty found in everyday reality.
