The List Is Empty brings together artists from across the Eastern Cape, including Lungile Nduna, Andile Tetani, Asavela Rono, Seamus Coetzee and Aqhoshile Gomeni, for a group exhibition in Gqeberha.

For many creators, being noticed is only the beginning. The bigger challenge is turning that moment of visibility into a sustainable career. Johannesburg-based creator Kgomotso Mose(tsana) Masebuko is doing exactly that, moving from the Dentsu South Africa School of Influence’s One Big Week into an internship with Dentsu Influence powered by CSA and an ongoing content partnership with FoneYam.

Her journey raises a bigger question about the creator economy: what happens when emerging talent is given not just exposure, but real access, mentorship and commercial opportunities?
