pieces move me so much. The combination of the abstract and
figurative, the crude marks of the artist' hand with the stick
veneer of paint, the winding words - it so evokes the complexity
of the subject, and finally the tragedy. The confidence and
beauty of these pieces are such a strong testament to the subject.
Thank you for this work

There is a resemblance between the histories of South Africa and the American South. Growing up in Georgia and I got the feeling that most people just wanted to live together in peace and mutual affection.

This is a fine show - powerful and thoughtful in concept; beautiful in palate and presentation. I hope it finds other venues for it needs to be seen. Thank you,

| I'm
over whelmed. Your work proves again and again the power of
art to move and communicate. You do both in the most
sophisticated and yet direct way.
The colors, the patterns and the interweaving lines and shapes connect and separate at the same time. Each of your shows has been wonderful and each surpasses the one before. You have created a special world.

| It
made me cry for Africa, a very emotional experience for me.
Your images are evocative of so much I knew existed. We must
also remember there were people who knew, objected, tried hard to
make changes. It is truly remarkable that a kind of
recommendation is taking place - a lesson for many people and
countries. Your painting s hit home to one who knew it as
home - and they go deep inside the reality of it - the terrible
suffering that took place. We need reminders like you have
given us - never to forget. Your work shows such
intellectual, emotional and artistic aspects.
Congratulations.

| This
last part of your extraordinary project is powerful,
thought-provoking, and compelling...The intensity, depth, and
density - in mage and in word - reflects your own extraordinary
and inspiring engagement with the complexity of relationships,
emotions, and social institutions that the TRC process seeks to
make sense of and heal. It's an enormous achievement, and I
hope a model for others to engage their creative spirit with the
complex social truths so that we, as citizens, can benefit from
the perspectives and insights of such engagement.
