  • Gille de Vlieg, née Gillian Ruth Hemson le 26 juillet 1940 en Angleterre, est une infirmière, une militante anti-apartheid et une photographe sud-africaine. Sa famille emménage en Afrique du Sud, alors qu'elle n'a que 3 ans. Dans les années 1980, elle adhère au mouvement des Black Sash, formalisant son engagement contre la politique d'apartheid du gouvernement sud-africain, et devient l'une des femmes membres du collectif photographique Afrapix. Ses images sont publiées dans des journaux, des magazines et des livres au niveau national et international. À propos de son travail, elle déclare avoir voulu témoigner d’une vision de l'Afrique du Sud que l'on ne voyait pas sur l'écran de la télévision sud-africaine de l'époque. (fr)
