Kelebogile Tshegofatso Marope was born in Ramotswa, Botswana in 1985. After a Bachelor of Fine Art degree in 2009, in which she majored in sculpture, Marope went on to complete a Master of Fine Art in 2013 at Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa. She works predominantly in the medium of sculpture, using the found object, and more recently two- dimensional drawings and prints. Her work engages with issues of nostalgia, familiarity, everyday life, and the implications of cleansing rituals in the domestic space.

She explores familiar household objects and reveals in practice how these ordinary objects are bound up with one’s own history, experiences, and ideals. What interests her with the domestic object is what is usually hidden behind over familiarity and mundanity. She has been part of group shows held in Grahamstown, South Africa and Gaborone, Botswana. She lives in Gaborone, Botswana.

Durant Basi Sihlali, born in 1935 in Germiston, earned a reputation as an artist who could perfectly capture life around him.

His tools of expression comprised a wide range of media, including printmaking, pulp painting and sculpture.
