Each of the artists, writers and academics on this exhibition were invited to select an illustrated page from illustrator and cartoonist Nathi Ngubane’s colouring book titled, From the River to the Sea.
They were then given their selected illustration enlarged and printed onto a canvas measuring 780mmx 550mm. Each artist then engaged creatively with their canvas. The result is a collection of varied yet linked artworks.
Solidarity Exhibition. Proceeds from the sale of the artworks will purchase pencil crayons and colouring books for children in need at schools in South Africa. The organisers of this exhibition are truly grateful to each of the artists for their generosity.
