Faith47
* born in South Africa
* street art
Faith47 is one of the few female artists in the international graffiti scene. Born and raised in South Africa, her works often thematically delve into present-day issues and the problems of her home country, but also into international current affairs – for example, the role of women in today’s society or the intercorrelations between mass media and propaganda, violence, poverty, and discrimination.
Works by Faith 47 are of high-quality design and captivate through their perfection and beauty. At second glance, the viewer discovers rich messages subtly emerging from her drawings and paintings. Thus, the potent motifs and the powerful act of contouring, in connection with content that is temperately and gingerly imparted, hold their audience spellbound.
