BIOGRAPHY
I am a creative and passionate Fine Art graduate with diverse experience in the arts. I have an
outspoken personality which encourages me to partake in various exhibitions and projects
that highlights my position as a young black female artist. I have intensions in uplifting
communities while I extend the boundaries of my academic experience and still rooted in
promoting and uplifting the experience of local marginalized artists in the townships. I am
currently a Visual Arts Intern at VANSA based at LACA.
