  • genadendal.objectecologies.co.za is a digital version of the Thesis by Matthew Nissen, produced as part of The Honours programme in Curatorship at the Centre for Curating the Archive, University of Cape Town.

    Nissen was born in 1986 in Cape Town. He completed his undergraduate degree at the University of Cape Town in 2007, majoring in history and political science. For his final research project, he looked at the relationship between teachers and students during the protests against the apartheid regime, in the 1980s, specifically in the Cape Flats. He wanted to understand the rise of consciousness and the historical timing.

    In 2010, he attended Mantis Field Guide Academy, where he completed his Field Guide Level One course, which enabled him to work as a game ranger at Shamwari Game reserve in the Eastern Cape. He returned to studying in 2012, and completed a diploma in Counselling and Communication Skills at the South African College of Applied Psychology, as well as a Bachelor of Applied Social Science from 2015-2017. He completed his counselling practicum at the Desmond Tutu HIV Foundation Youth Centre in Masiphumelele and at Hope House Counselling and Resource Centre in Bergvliet.
