Boys II Men
This striking photograph captures Sepedi boys just returned from the mountains after completing their initiation school, a vital rite of passage. Covered in reddish mud called "motsoku," they stand proudly, embodying the transition from boyhood to manhood. Their bare bodies and traditional mud symbolize this significant change. The community celebrates their return, honoring a tradition that has endured for centuries.
