Artist Statement:
Swim was the last collaboration Kombo Chapfika created with Sarah Murphy, Erin Murphy, and Gemma Temlett before the Murphy family left Zimbabwe for greener pastures. This was created as a goodbye of sorts. The project emerged out of an urge to create something to express that heightened moment before imminent loss, the allure and risk of an unknown future.
