In January 2010, Rankin travelled to South Africa to explore the country's photographic traditions, where he was inspired by some of South Africa's greatest living photographers. Rankin's photographs of his journey capture the colour and vitality of South Africa as it proudly steps into the new decade. The traditions, characters, fashions and faces all combine to illustrate South Africa in 2010, a nation where wealth and poverty still overlap and western and traditional dress create a vivid tapestry.
