Africa


Sealed Acrylic & emulsion on canvas. Southern Africa 1995/96.

One of eight themes produced in South Africa for the Southern Sun Hotel group in Buphutetswana and Matsulu. The theme is "Gangsters" and is made up of 6 canvases, four are 7m x 3m and two are 3m x 3m. The canvases were created in a studio in Johannesburg. Here at the hotel the canvases are suspended on railings with clips attached to eyelets in the canvas and drape the entire banqueting hall.
