Our work (photography and jewellery) can be seen at Studio98 along the main road in Napier.

In the meantime the roads in Bredasdorp are virtually empty … Is it that they are on their way to ‘Creative Napier’; the art event in Napier where 14 artists present their work in 10 different locations?
👉”African Feet” was first exhibited at the UNESCO exhibition ‘The Invisible/Visible’ in Oslo, Norway and since then travelling around the globe.
During the exhibition CREATIVE NAPIER 24-26 September it will be on display in Studio98 along the main road (100m past the church towards Bredasdorp).
The exhibition in Oso was in december/January 2017/18 and curated by the previous photography curator of the Prado Museum in Madrid.👈
