Tayla Micael Sellschop

I am an artist , ethical hacker and writer.
My goal as an artist is to be an "active participant journalist" in terms of the topics I cover.
Here, my artwork is opiniated. The work must take a stance as opposed to being impartial and disinterested. Here , I believe that art has a distinct place in activism.
With regards to more personal work , I see it as an opportunity to put visuals to my own feelings.
My ambitions are to showcase exhibitions throughout the world fusing fashion , film and music. My work takes elements from beadwork and dressmaking and incorporates it with conventional fine art techniques. My pieces rely on manipulating materials that are typically found discarded or second-hand. These include materials found decor settings. I often blend lyrics and poetry in with my work.

I studied law at Rhodes University. Thereafter I did my Honours in Development Studies. I then obtained a teaching certification and became a Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH).
