Maitemogelo Diphetogo Mphela works in abstraction and mixed media. Her paintings explore belonging and memory through earthy tones, layered textures, and fragments of text. By embedding affirmations and traces of handwriting, she transforms personal reflection into visual form.
Mphela’s practice investigates the shifting sense of home as both intimate and transient, using acrylic, oil pastels, and mixed materials on canvas and MDF.
Her recent exhibitions and studio collaborations position her among South Africa’s promising emerging artists, contributing to broader conversations about identity and contemporary abstraction.
