Today we made our way to Mpumalanga South-Africa, one of the most scenic provinces in the country and found ourselves in the small town called Hazyview.

We visited a formidable art shop that hosted an array of multimedia art based on the true theme of Africa.

A great deal of the art was created by incorporating a selection of natural materials found in the bush while others were made on uniquely created canvases such as large hand-crafted wall plates.

~ These plates are simply mind blowing, especially when you are standing right in front of them and realize just how big they actually are, and they are all made on a bamboo base.

There were also some raw metal sculptures as well as functional art.

cool items in that shop! are they expensive? I would love to travel to south africa

Not by international standard a good piece would cost you about 240 USD, there are cheaper and more expensive ones depending of course on the artist as well as the art

Nice post, thanks for sharing
