Joburg fringe Art exhibition weekend by Miabo Enyadike

Joburg fringe Art exhibition weekend The Joburg Fringe 2016, Art show has come and gone with an exciting bang.                 As an Abstract Artist who participated in this show it was a marvelous experience, exhibiting in  an industrial setting, at the heart of Joburg inner city known as the Maboneng Precinct.               Art works by Miabo Enyadike(my corner)   Which is also an Art and creative hub in South Africa. Interacting with other Artist Works by Richard Ketley and Logo Oluwamuyiwa  and understanding their influence and inspiration behind their Art was key for me.   I was particularly fascinated by Howard Smith, a very soft spoken Artist from New York, whose very mini abstract art paintings where pure and captured my imagination.                      ...

1 DAY..... TO JOBURG FRINGE ART SHOW

          JOBURG FRINGE ART SHOW  One day to the Joburg fringe Art show and it is truly exciting since it will run alongside Joburg Art fair. I will be one of the Artist exhibiting alongside several brilliant Artists. I'm eager to see their works and meet them, so that  in itself is  exciting to me. The work I’m proposing for the fringe exhibition, is abstract art about faces, hence the title FACES UNKNOWN. It is an abstract rendition of women and men’s faces in silhouettes referencing faces of people we work with, family and people we deal with on a day to day basis or people that attract our attention but are detached from our own reality yet they affect us.. Interacting with people is something I enjoy doing. I try to imagine what their silhouettes in abstract art would look like with reference to their character, demeanor, facial expressions, life situations and occupation. As an artist, my curiosity to create these Ink based abs...

How to turn plain old vases to Art objects using Fabrics by Miabo Enyadike

It is no secret that I enjoy creating Art with  discarded Jeans pant.  If and when I collect a few Jeans pant, I immediately create art with it. It is easily accessible and durable and very easy to manipulate and use for any creative purpose no matter the idea. Working with old denim pants for me, is a way of giving life back to a material that is so versatile yet resilient. And all you need is  1. Old pair of Jeans 2.Glue(A lot of glue) 3.A  mold 4. Acrylic Paint Wet the denim fabric,cut it and saturate it with glue and mold it around the object you intend to enhance or recreate, for me is bottles or pots. I try to use discarded objects as the moulds for this denim Art. Leave it to dry for as long as it dries out stiff,strong and well formed. Then apply paint on it.  *Note: The mold which is the pot, remains inside! because the jean pants is glued to it.  Do you know that a goo...
