As I write this blog, right now it is being remodeled into an Artist hub that would comprise Artist Studio spaces, Art galleries and everything Art wise. 



                                  Bare walls for Artist to Install their Art

The actual space for this years exhibition is also under remodeling and construction how cool is that and this space will be occupied by the Joburg fringe for the next 4 days.



                                       Clearing my wall space at the Fringe Venue



It is under construction and remodeling so the walls are bare and you can see the old bones of the building and the Industrial appeal is so in your face... it is beautiful.


live Art, graffiti going on in the venue exciting!



 Though a bit daunting when it comes to installing our work,I know we are all excited about the venue and the space, so that thought is so secondary to us all right now, as we brave  all the remodeling going on and install Art.....
