Lesego Motsiri entered his video artwork titled Self Portrait in this year's New Breed Art Competition, a proud initiative of PH Attorneys. In deciding on the award, the judges were unanimous in their decision, indicating that this artwork was original, introspective and engaging. They commented on the intricacy of the thought process that had gone into the work and that it was definitely not something they had seen before and in their minds the clear winner of this year’s competition. His engaging artwork secured the grand prize of R50,000 and national recognition as the Overall Winner of the 2023 New Breed Art Competition. All the entries are currently on display at Oliewenhuis Art Museum in Bloemfontein until the 19th of November. These works are all for sale as well.
