Our world is made so much richer when history and art collide.

 

Johannesburg, South Africa (22 October 2022) – It’s proudly South African art that you cannot buy but rather, only created to bring joy!

Lara Bolle recently started a series of pieces called “Showcasing Jozi” – art created to bring some insight to our beautiful city… but these small pieces of joy have brought so much more happiness to everyone that sees them.

Her friend Robynne-Ashley Hauptfleisch believes that Bolle’s work deserves to be seen!

“Lara, you are amazing and your art is inspiring and thoughtful and creative and emotional. They are absolutely beautiful and remind us, as South Africans going through a lot at the moment, that our country and our architecture and our history is rich and vibrant and colourful and tragic and uniquely beautiful all at the same time,” Robynne-Ashley Hauptfleisch explained to Good Things Guy.

And everyone who has seen the art agrees! Positive comments have been flowing in since the pieces were posted.

“Stunning art and I found the history to be very interesting,” Connie Butler posted. 

“WOW! These are incredible,” Jolene Cummings commented.

Check out some of her pieces below, or follow her Instagram page to be even more inspired!
