"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!

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
