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.

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.

Works by Howard Smith.

I just kept going back and forth to view his work.

I enjoyed the diversity in the Art and creative performance by a South African folklore story teller who for the duration of the

Performance Artist Lisahluma narrating a folk lore

exhibition held people spellbound by her

ability to create true life experiences into

a one woman art of narratives, that we can all relate too.

and the video art which was thought provoking to say the least, had it's share of viewers and critics.

I discovered really moving and inspiring art, created with found objects that we take for granted ...
