This piece is called 'Africa Reinvented' and is made from old paperbacks salvaged from the recycling pile. Tons of books get pulped every year or just dumped in a landfill - through using them and turning them into art pieces I hope to give these books a chance to tell another story. 

Each book page is folded individually and this creates the interesting shapes and patterns of this African art sculpture. I then cut the books into different sizes and glue them onto a piece of rigid board. This has a sturdy hook on the back for hanging the piece on the wall. Each one is signed.

Size:  Extra-large

Height: 95cm 

Width: 80cm

Depth: 12cm

This piece is sold UNFRAMED.  

Please note:  Each piece is made individually and as such the African art piece will not look exactly like the photograph featured - colour, shape and heights of the books used will vary. 

DOOR TO DOOR COURIER

International: R12 000 (yes... you read that right, the prices are absolutely crazy to ship a sculpture this size)

South Africa: R900

I send the art piece via a registered courier service from South Africa to anywhere in the world. The box has a global tracking number. This takes between 5 to 7 working days, though I have experienced waits of up to 21 days when the artwork is held up in customs.  Please note, your country may apply import duties at the discretion of the customs official on arrival.  This is for your account.
