ART - SOUTH AFRICAN PAINTER

Mustapha Maluka was born in South Africa where he first came up on the local South African Artsy Scene. He then moved to Denmark to complement his background in graphic designing with an independent study in art.

What sets him apart from other African painters is that he doesn't feel the need to show his Africanism solely, he knows who he is , he knows our history, He says that he paints for himself first.
Mustapha paints white, yellow, black people...and emotions.
He uses global pop culture as his stage, every day people as his actors, and shows us a range of emotions. He draws huge portraits w/acrylic and oil on canvas generally.. This 31 years old brother is also the co-founder of the African Hip Hop site africanhiphop.com
