Keamogetswe Motsoane is a 21-year-old filmmaker, photographer and poet. Her passions include scriptwriting, directing and cinematography. Fashion is also a huge aspect of who she is and creativity comes as second nature.

Her style of photography is film in both colour, and black&white. She captures stories that speak to her soul and express what it is she has gone through in the past while staying present. Skating is one of her hobbies and the quotes she lives by is “keep moving forward”.

Her favourite film is “The Photograph”, directed by Stella Meghie and the scene which speaks to her the most is where Christina Eames, who is the main character - mentions that; “Pictures take up more space than people, it’s the only way I could love”. Which is something she highly resonates with.
