I work mainly in the media of printmaking and sculpture. When making prints my preference is for hard ground etchings, drypoint or relief prints. Sculpturally I work with bronze, glass and various metals, often combining them in a single artwork. I was formerly a Mathematics lecturer at the University of the Witwatersrand for thirty years. Drawing on my expertise in mathematics, I helped to create a popular interest and involvement in mathematics by elucidating the nexus between mathematics and traditional African craft objects, and has been involved in the production of numerous articles, books, TV documentaries, videos and DVDs relating to that topic. I was the mathematician involved in the development of the series Africa meets Africa ().
