"Digging for Resources"
Mind my race, my culture and my beliefs. Being the youth of South Africa without a voice is hard enough, so it begins with us to make the sacrifices and stand up to be heard. The venue that we snuck into on the the night is a scrap yard as it depicts where South Africa will end up due Nationalizing of mines. A portrait of Julius Malema visualizes him picking his nose, with a visual pun of digging for resources in the South African mining sector as it will only benefit the upper echelon of our Government and political powers. The right to FREEDOM of EXPRESSION. Be Inspired!




Take a look into what sacrifices Gasak went through for painting "Digging for Resources". As the youth of today, Be Inspired to make the difference!

"We lay down our life, for the sake of freedom" Nelson Mandela

A Christmas to Inspire


Gasak a graffiti artist from South Africa, sneaks into a township before Christmas, where 13 street/orphan kids live. While going unnoticed, he is able to paint a Christmas tree and leave 26 Christmas presents underneath the tree I painted for them to enjoy this morning. Be Inspired

Gasak - Digging for Diamonds


Gasak - Digging for Diamonds : This is Queen Elizabeth II picking her nose , with a visual pun of Digging for Diamonds .... As the Royal family has the 2nd biggest diamond in the world , the Cullinan Diamond ( Star of Africa ) that was given to King Edward IV during Colonial South Africa. I feel strongly that the diamond should be on South African soil, for South Africans to view and be proud of as it is part of South African history and heritage. This was not painted with disrespect towards the Queen but to bring up a subject through art for the viewer to have there own opinion on such a subject. This was painted in the UK, during the Diamond Jubilee weekend and painted infront of thousand of her loyal fans. Be Inspired
