Botswana Stitch in Time

Botswana Stitch in Time
An antique Singer sewing machine, a silent witness to life in Botswana, captured in monochrome.
About the photograph
A Singer sewing machine in a room in Botswana — present in an unexpected context, worn to the specific patina of long use. The machine is functional still. This is not an artefact; not nostalgia: it is the same machine Singer made elsewhere, doing the same work, on a different continent.
