Not Collected Design he invites the viewer into"Not Collected" is an insight into local communities around Johannesburg, South Africa, just before Apartheid ended. This rare archive was found in Jeppestown district by Audrey Salmon and Lukas Birk on the back shelves of Ravi Lallas framing and poster shop. This once large establishment was a cornerstone in the area, and Ravis stories span four decades. Ravi used to develop, enlarge and frame images taken by workers whose jobs were in Jeppestown.
