Description
TITLED: Water + Rust by Charmaine Taylor.
Inspired by the Atlantic Ocean that surrounds Cape Town, which is often referred to as The Cape of Storms. These storms make most coastal metals rust.
The metal covering the African continent is the historical fencing off Robben Island prison, this island is surrounded by the wild + icy Atlantic Ocean. This rusted fencing once surrounded Nelson Mandela during his imprisonment on Robben Island. We are now creating messages of Hope over History and in doing so; always remembering The Legacy of Nelson Mandela and his comrades who served time on #RobbenIsland.
The tag on the artwork has a unique serial number where we document all the fencing within our range. You will also receive a certificate of Authenticity.
