Marepe

‘Marepe’s world is fairly unique and his works of art are not just objects representing an idea or concept, they are witnesses of his life and the condensation of his experiences and his dreams. His interpretation of his surroundings is rendered into multifaceted, poetic, and frequently beautiful works of art, which speak profoundly about some of the most relevant and even existential questions of our lives.’
