artists

Unique makers creating beyond the conveyer belt of mass-produced wallpaper. Often compelled to create because there is no alternative.

Alexis Schofield

Painter who creates impressionistic compositions from found photographs, his own archive, and AI-generated images. Works with charcoal drawings, pouring inks, and oil on raw canvas, layering materials and textures to build meaning.

Anton Kannemeyer

Cape Town–born artist and co-founder of Bitterkomix magazine (1992). Known for provocative work engaging with South African racial politics. Studied graphic design and illustration at the University of Stellenbosch; his confrontational style has drawn both praise and criticism.

Boemo Diale

Self-taught artist and film student whose paintings explore racial identity and spatial navigation in post-apartheid South Africa. She uses distinctive yellow and black figures — set in foliage-rich scenes — to examine her experience of moving between predominantly black and white spaces.

Claudette Schreuders

Creates carved and painted wooden figures that explore post-apartheid African identity. Drawing from medieval church art, West African carving, and Spanish portraiture, her sculptures bridge European and African traditions while deliberately avoiding familiar or comfortable representations.

Fanie Buys (Faninani)

South African painter working under the online handle Faninani. His Passage Light series depicts the warm glow of household lights from within the confines of traditional middle-class South African homes.

Gone Rural

A collective of master weavers based in Eswatini (Swaziland) producing contemporary craft objects rooted in traditional technique.

Lady Skollie (Laura Windvogel)

Cape Town–based artist who combines printmaking with bold social commentary. A graduate of the University of Cape Town, her work explores gender, sexuality, and identity through vibrant colours and provocative imagery. Featured in Stevenson Gallery and Everard Read Johannesburg.

Zeca Francisco Saia

Cement sculptor from Manhica, Mozambique. Began sculpting in 2003 after he could no longer work as a bricklayer, starting with a bird and an airplane that won over sceptical neighbours. Works intuitively, inspired by cloud shapes.
