Shipping Info

Within South Africa we courier your artwork to your door - the shipping cost will show at the checkout.

When shipping art internationally, two primary options are commonly considered: crated and rolled. Crating involves securely packaging the artwork in a custom-built crate, providing maximum protection against physical damage but often resulting in higher shipping costs due to size and weight.
On the other hand, rolling art involves taking stretched paintings off the frame, carefully wrapping the artwork and placing it in a protective tube. This method is more cost-effective and suitable for flexible pieces.
Choosing between crating and rolling depends on the specific artwork's size, fragility, and budget, as well as the destination's shipping requirements and regulations.

We will be in touch regarding the best options for you.

Description

The central figure in the piece embodies the persona of a powerful woman who is the head of a prominent taxi company, navigating the complexities of a male-dominated industry.

The artwork portrays the woman accompanied by a majestic cheetah, which serves as a symbol of protection and a clear message to other taxi bosses not to underestimate her authority.

This imagery underscores her resilience and determination in commanding respect and asserting her position in a male-dominated realm.

Her taxi, prominently displayed in the artwork, is adorned with the iconic luxury brand Louis Vuitton. However, instead of the traditional LV logo, it features the logo of Inkomasi, a well-known amasi brand in South Africa. This creative juxtaposition highlights the fusion of luxury and local culture, showcasing the ability to blend the worlds of high-end brands and popular local products.

The artwork serves as a visual tribute to the African women who rise above societal expectations and break through barriers to lead with confidence and authority. It aims to celebrate their resilience, intelligence, and the invaluable contributions they make in shaping the social and economic landscape of South Africa.
