Artists We Love: Atang Tshikare

Atang Tshikare’s Afrofuturistic designs have a dynamic texture that plays on the senses and sets the tone for a new pulse in African design.

Atang Tshikare has an inherent willingness to explore and an unending commitment to refine his art, which has led him to experiment and produce work with leather, fabric, wood, concrete, ceramic and more. “My influences are a myriad of abstract cultures, from traditional ones to post-imaginative utopias. I run through them all. When I think of my work, it all comes together in sound, sight, touch and smell,” says the multidisciplinary artist, who hails from Bloemfontein.
