Finding out my face went global as a stock photo

Outlook

Available for over a year

Shubnum Khan has a cautionary tale of why you should always read the small print. She's a South African artist and writer whose image went global, not for her work, but because pictures from a photo shoot she did were sold on to a stock photo company. Shubnum tells Andile what it was like to discover her face was promoting acne creams, dating websites and a Cambodian trekking company. Image and credit: Shubnum Khan
