Gerard Sekoto’s Choir singers is a nostalgic and somewhat sentimental work painted from memory while he was in exile. It is most likely based on his childhood memories growing up on the Botshabelo mission station, and speaks of fond memories but also of loss – a time and a country he would never experience again.
