The special thing about this work of art is that it was painted on 3D cardboard. In this way, the artist Gerhard Van der Westhuizen managed to bring two motifs into one painting. Depending on which side you look at the picture from, you see a different motif. When viewed from the front, you see a combination of both motifs, which again create a completely single work of art. As in most of his works, the focus is on the eyes, which for him are the "window to the soul".

Gerhard Van der Westhuizen is a South African artist born in Cape Town. His paintings are in the style of abstract expressionism and focus on modern femininity. He mostly works with oil paints on high-quality stretch canvas, but sometimes also with unconventional media, such as lightweight concrete panels. Recently he has also been making various sculptures in addition to his paintings. You can find more information about the artist Gerhard Van der Westhuiten here .

The work of art transports the inimitably powerful pulse of a modern Africa into your rooms. This spirit can unfold not only in your living room, but also in your office, your waiting room or your agency. We select all exhibits directly from Africa because we want to act as ambassadors for contemporary artists living in Africa. In order to give something back to nature in Africa, we donate a portion of every purchase to selected African animal protection projects.

All our works can be viewed and picked up at the SOUL OF AFRIKA gallery at Lindwurmstraße 157, 80337 Munich.
