This ceramic sculpture evokes the historical and contemporary Zulu royal family: foremost strength and stability in a world confronted with changes; but also claim, counterclaims, conspiracies and treachery. It also evokes the triumvirate that occurs in cultures across the world - the creator, sustainer and destroyer, and the impassivity of the moon to man's foibles.
Rosh Sewpersad studied art at the University of Cape Town, and his preferred medium is ceramic sculpture. He uses a variety of hand building methods, and experiments with various oxide and glaze techniques, including meticulous and graphic painting on ceramics. His studio is located at Nirvana Fynbos Reserve, a nature reserve preserving the unique biodiversity of the Western Cape that he founded, and he is inspired by the forms, textures and colours of nature that surround him. He also finds inspiration in the animistic cultures of the African continent, and has studied shamanic traditions. His themes explore the human body, humanity’s connection to nature, gender fluidity, as well as abstract and imagined representations inspired by the living world.
