ABOUT THE ARTIST
Since the early 1990’s, Peter has brought life to public art
projects on a grand scale across three continents, painting
and facilitating hundreds of meters of themed murals: in
schools, community centres, hospitals, universities and other
public buildings.
He passionately continues with these charity
projects locally and internationally.
Most notably, for the Parliament of World Religions in 1999,
Peter managed more than 150 people across all ages and
backgrounds to create 250 meters of religious mural art,
reflecting the spiritual iconography of a country in turmoil.
The late Nelson Mandela, the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu were
among the delegates at this televised event in Cape Town.
Two large realistic portraits of the late Nelson and Winnie
Mandela are currently being exhibited in The South African
Embassy in London, UK.
After a sell-out solo show in Switzerland, Peter was selected
as one of six South African mid-career professionals for a
scholarship hosted by Indiana University in San Francisco, to
lecture on their Masters Program on Multi-Culturalism in
Education. He was invited by several schools and the Carlos
Santana Foundation to engage young people at risk, in
creating public art reflecting multi-cultural heroes and role
models.
Peter’s six figurative surrealist paintings, including The Trojan
Horse, The Juggler, Red Bull, Memories of Africa and The
Gambler explore the fall-out of Colonialism and global conflict.
Based in London since 2000, Peter’s paintings have been
exhibited and sold to buyers in Germany, France, Nigeria,
Japan, the UK and USA.
In London, Peter has shown at galleries such as Lov
Ketchup, The PM Gallery and he was featured in the top 100
for the Cork Street Open Show for Erotic Art in 2011.
