LAKIN MORGAN-BAATJIES, UJ ARTS & CULTURE MARKETING COORDINATOR

Loading player...
Part of an international university of choice, UJ Arts & Culture is a division of the Faculty of Art, Design & Architecture (FADA) which produces and presents world-class student and professional arts programmes aligned to the university’s mandate to be recognised as an anchor in Africa, dynamically shaping the future. A robust range of arts platforms are offered on all four UJ campuses for students, staff, alumni, and the general public to experience and engage with emerging and established Pan-African and international artists drawn from the full spectrum of the arts.

One of their proud offerings, Metamorphosis is a masterpiece that highlights the interdisciplinary and collaborative nature of UJ Arts & Culture’s work. Conceptualised by around 300 FADA students and performed by a stellar line-up of professionals, Metamorphosis, one of the most widely read and influential works of 20th-century fiction by Franz Kafka, is the story of a young man who transforms into a giant beetle-like insect overnight, becomes an object of disgrace to his family and an outsider in his own home.
