A vibrant, original piece by Samurai Farai in acrylic and oil stick.
"Farai Engelbrecht (Samurai Farai) is 27 year old, vibrant and independent, contemporary artist from South Africa. Moulded by the culture and dynamics of this complex space, as well as his dual Heritage of Zimbabwean & Afrikaans descent, his perspective bears a refreshing and unique Afrocentric perspective.
He is not just an artist, but a curator, gallery founder and art-dealer too.
His work takes inspiration from the details of people in society, the happenings and nuances between human dynamics as well as the African Diaspora and the conversation of what occurs beneath the surface of all of us as people: emotionally, psychologically and spiritually.
A large facet of his work surrounds mental health, identity and the multiple versions of self that one human can possess. His art uses bright, bold and courageous colour and the use of line to communicate an optimistic hope and intrigue in the future identity of Africa within its contexts and within the contexts of the world. .
Successful projects include; artist in residency for Black Brick Hotel, a recent collaboration with Mercedes Benz, innovation in the NFT realm, commissions for international brands like Heineken as well as international celebrities and multiple large-scale murals painted around the country."
