Each Felt Bolster or Cotton Scatter is different

These and Yda’s panels have been our best-sellers

at both our 44 Stanley & Arts on Main stores

Okechukwu Echere is a phenomenon. When I first came

across his work in Ghana two years ago, I was blown away,

not only by its dramatic scale, but also by the power of the

pieces and its commentary on adornment. Okey since came

to South Africa to be part of the DNA workshops I coordinated

with Trevyn McGowan, and we are privileged to have some of

his pieces in our 44 Stanley Store and at the All African Spaza

we run at Arts on Main. Contact us for more images of his work.

A lovely new experiment with

Mr Neng and his product, the

introdction of raffia and maybe

water hyacinth with the white

acrylic

A Masterpiece from the ever indutrious

Merle Payne of Barok, one of the few

skilled designers who dares to blend

top end product with that which we

all desire in our homes: Wit.

We’re delighted, thanks to the first Design

Network Africa Program and PACE Fair to

be stocking the massive, extraordinary and

sought-after pieces created by our friend from

Lagos, the inimitable Okechukwu Echere. The

piece on the left is 1,3 Metres high.
