Moving Times Print | Katlehong Childhood Photography

Moving Times is an original photograph by col_shots, captured in Katlehong, Gauteng, South Africa.

The image forms part of a visual reflection on township childhood, play, comfort, and everyday life. It documents children in a moment of ease, moving, playing, and existing with the kind of freedom that often defines young life before the world becomes heavy with responsibility.

The work connects to the wider No-Khala documentary archive, where ordinary moments become records of memory, place, and social life. Moving Times is about life in motion: children growing, streets carrying memory, and township spaces holding both play and reality at the same time.

Printed on photo paper from an original col_shots photograph and made to order.

These kids where showing off their backspinning capabilities to the camera i had at hand, showing how we grow up with the love of being seen but then become adults crippled by anxiety. The colour choice resembles the simplicity of the moment and the lake of stress and diversity of the real world.
