Sibanye (2012)
This was a collaborative project between
myself and Gabriel Chaponda who did the photography and illustration work while
I was responsible for conceptualisation of the project. Sibanye is a public art commission which lies on the Route67 Art’s
Journey in Nelson Mandela Bay, a tourist attraction along the inner city of
Port Elizabeth and is situated at the ArtEC Gallery in Bird Street, Central. The proposal
entailed painting 67 (sixty seven) square portraits of individuals who are
either residents of, or employed, in the CBD to signify the 67 (sixty seven)
years of freedom fighting Nelson Mandela did for the emancipation of all the
citizens of the Republic of South Africa.
