Artist

Faith47

“The identity of the artist is in many ways irrelevant as it can distract the viewer from the actual artwork being created. The artist is a mirror on society. My work is inspired by nature and by human nature — exploring how the two reflect each other. I’m interested in alchemy and the mystery of existence, in symbols, time and the riddles of humanity.”

Cape Town-based Faith47 is South Africa’s pre-eminent female graffiti artist. Her work, exhibited on abandoned walls around the globe, is world-renowned and respected for its social conscience.
