Faith 47
Bio:
Faith47 searches for a tone of ink that goes directly to the heart. Her work is a fixation, merging the intimately fragile and most subtle Gestures with a raw and violent darkness. Faiths images live on broken down cars and old factories, down dusty side Roads in lost towns, inner-city alleyways and highways, large buildings and small shacks. Flowing over from the streets into galleries with a sense of purpose. She travels extensively through her art but lives in South Africa where the Soil is red and her blood feels comfortably and peacefully on edge.
