ABOUT THE ARTWORK
They came with a book lined in red. They taught us how to read it. We were overwhelmed. Some of us went in ships and some of us never made shore. I am here right now. Daily my life is a negotiation. I keep my head high even though my soul is buried. Those before me were convinced the savior was HIM. Those around me think that I am a subject for sale. They think they own me. I am educated, free and willing to work for what I want. No matter how many accolades I receive. I am still seen as a secondary me. So much that he keeps on hitting me, belittling me and shoving me across the streets. When will I be viewed as an equal capable of creating the finer things in life? With the skies dark and the moon bright, I am a woman. And with all the oppression I face daily. I am a God.

Simphiwe Kaka
South Africa
Simphiwe kaka is a South African artist that specializes in oil on canvas. His work is inspired by his society and he portrays rare, personal and mysterious African subjects whom he at times juxtaposition in fantastical landscapes where culture, the future, ritual and the contemporary world meets and coexist. He says the reason for this is to inspire originality, non conformity and the desire for the youth to fully express themselves and change the world regardless of their demographics, race or space they find themselves in. His painting style is influenced by Leonardo Da Vinci's Sfumato and he blends it with more contemporary techniques to give a unique look.
