Karoo

The long, desolate stretch of the N1 highway is Johnny Clegg’s starting point in his journey through the Karoo. Along this journey he tries to understand that particular quality of silence and loneliness that defines this area: a loneliness that is fulfilling. Encountering some of the Karoo’s most surprising and inspiring art and artists along the way, these stories are as moving as they are eccentric in a place that from the outside appears blank, but which, through stopping to really look, reveals itself to be a place of rich, hidden treasures.
