MEMENTO Opening 1 October 2026 Join us for First Thursday, 1 October, for the opening of ‘MEMENTO’ (17:00 – 21:00). The official reopening of our sister store, The Jester , will be accompanied by an INK BOX ART exhibition, with Johan Alberts as the leading artist! We would love for you to see the conversations that spark between a modern portrait and an antique lamp. Or perhaps a skateboard (turned painting) posing alongside a delicate piece of China. Furthermore, we encourage you to try some delicious snacks from The Jester’s vintage style sweet setup. Not to sound like a stuck record, but there is in fact, something for everyone. You may have fond memories of the past but why not create some new ones for the future? KNOW WHATS HAPPENING NEXT: There is nothing better than the lively exchange of community and excitement in the gallery space during an exhibition opening!

- Austen Gordon | INK BOX ART
INTERESTED IN THIS ARTIST'S WORK? CLICK HERE TO CONTACT US: Mail Austen Gordon "Austen's work explores illustrative realism, wordplay and principles of aestheticism. She is interested in taking a theme or a subject matter, working and re-working it and watching it evolve and change. Her current work draws on endless references found in nature, namely flowers, and she represents these blooms and foliage in a manner that recalls, but does not quite mimic, reality. Her works possess a sense of stillness juxtaposed with a flurry of detail and application of colour."

- Landia Davies | INK BOX ART
INTERESTED IN THIS ARTIST'S WORK? CLICK HERE TO CONTACT US: Mail Landia Davies Landia Davies is a contemporary South African sculptress who produces clay sculptures which are then cast in bronze. Her sculptures are about the transformative power of vulnerability. They are invitations to be brave enough to take risks and be true to yourself. Landia’s sculptures celebrate naivety and playfulness in the midst of complexity and adversity. The sculptures encourage the viewer to forge an authentic individual identity in defiance of society’s tidy labels and categories. Her current body of work is about having the courage to embrace raw human emotions. Landia wants the viewer to question the norm and perhaps find that defining the form is not as important as feeling its state of being.

- MISHVANIA - Michelle Beattie | INK BOX ART
INTERESTED IN THIS ARTIST'S WORK? CLICK HERE TO CONTACT US: Mail MISHVANIA - Michelle Beattie Michelle Beattie creates intuitive art compositions sculpted from ocean plastic. Her sculptures highlight the severity of the ocean plastic pollution crisis, inviting viewers to engage in constructive conversations on how to address this issue. “If I don’t show you, you will not see!” Growing up in Plettenberg Bay, Michelle Beattie cherished her days on the beach, captivated by the ocean’s beauty and collecting what she affectionately called “Mermaids’ Tears.” It was only later that she discovered these were plastic nurdles, the raw material of plastic production. This realisation sparked her passion for environmental advocacy. Motivated by a growing awareness of the severe impact of plastics on marine life, Michelle felt a strong urge to raise awareness about this issue. In 2020, she discovered the power of art to convey her message. By sculpting with unaltered beach-found plastics, she aims to give the ocean a “voice.” Her art serves as a poignant reminder of our shared responsibility to embrace sustainability. Each piece tells a story of transformation, reshaping ocean plastic pollution into captivating artworks that invite reflection on our environmental impact. Through her creations, Michelle seeks to inspire a deeper commitment to protecting the environment.

- ME, Hugill | INK BOX ART
INTERESTED IN THIS ARTIST'S WORK? CLICK HERE TO CONTACT US: Mail ME, Hugill "My work explores delight, whimsy, and the magic found within the simplicities of life. I am interested in connection, humour, and the passage of time, and in the belief that meaning can be found in bright moments and the things that bring us joy, just as much as in the harder avenues of growth. For me, art is both escape and connection. We have enough trauma; art can be the crack that lets in humanity and joy. If something makes you smile, warms your heart, or sparks a moment of recognition, I believe it holds meaning."

"My intention isn’t to capture an ideal or present the pinnacle of beauty. I distort and exaggerate certain physical features to capture, amplify and accentuate the essence of my subjects. I look for interesting faces, for details that I can interpret, for ways to heighten what I see. I’m drawn to a bold, resilient beauty that’s imperfect and asymmetrical... the rare magnetism of men and women who are truly comfortable in their skin.” André Serfontein Nature's Force André Serfontein Bronze and Oil Paint 56cm (H) R72,250 The Veil André Serfontein Oil on Canvas 40x60cm SOLD The Longing Andre Serfontein Oil on Canvas 51x41cm SOLD Flex André Serfontein Oil on Canvas 92 x 122cm SOLD Now the party is over André Serfontein Oil on canvas 60x80cm SOLD

- Peter van Straten | INK BOX ART
INTERESTED IN THIS ARTIST'S WORK? CLICK HERE TO CONTACT US: Mail Peter van Straten “Nothing ruins a grandiose sense of self like a hyperactive sense of irony. I am prevented therefore from uttering with any seriousness an ambition that is non-the-less heartfelt: to celebrate, with a single iconic image, each uniquely intriguing facet of human existence. This task would of course take many lifetimes, and while I might conceivably have many lives it is doubtful whether I would remember my task from one life to the next; becoming instead the postmaster at Wellington, then a bureaucrat in Bangladesh, followed by a housewife in Durban – each without the slightest interest in illustrating the human condition. For this reason, I am driven by a deep sense of urgency in this lifetime – straining against the undertow of time to expand my understanding of the light bulb moments I am determined to illustrate. Luckily for me I find the story of Sisyphus more amusing than tragic, and my favourite word in the English language is Nympholepsy, which, to paraphrase the Oxford dictionary, is ecstasy or madness caused by pursuit of the unattainable. If anything, it is reassuring to know that one’s journeying will never be threatened by something as crass as destination, and it is pure bliss to paint that journey.” - Peter van Straten A Human In The Cathedral Of Time Our entire race bares the character Of a small boy With seemingly no limit to what it can gleefully create and destroy Peter van Straten Oil on Canvas 160 x 120 x 3cm R190, 000 From Time To Time Remember To Check In With Your Deepest Desires Resist becoming hypnotized By the mundane A hypnotic state is as far from meditation As a yoga mat is from a whale tail Peter van Straten Oil on Canvas 90 x 120 x 5cm R140 000 Seeds Babies, kittens, balls of wool Pilgrims, sailors, songs All busily evolving Curious about what they’ll become Peter van Straten Oil on Canvas 120 x 90 x 5cm R140 000 Learning Which Dreams to Pop A most important skill to learn Some dreams inspire While others are prisons And urgently need to be burst Peter van Straten Oil on Canvas 120 x 90 x 5cm R140 000 Spiral of Life It really doesn’t matter who you are Doesn’t matter if you walk, fly or crawl We’re all on the same continuum The spiral of life wants us all Peter van Straten Oil on Canvas 120 x 60 x 5cm R90 000 Bringing Home Back In From the trap of self-pity, some will be freed Reborn in the realisation That their childhood was better Than they’d allowed themselves To believe Peter van Straten Oil on Canvas 90 x 120 x 5cm R 140 000 The Anchor It’s not easy being her anchor You mustn’t let her fly to high But neither must you cramp her style Peter van Straten Oil on Canvas 90 x 120 x 3cm R140 000 Feelings "A reminder to leave your comfort zone from time to time."

- Simone Tavares | INK BOX ART
INTERESTED IN THIS ARTIST'S WORK? CLICK HERE TO CONTACT US: Mail Simone Tavares Simone is a Cape Town-based analogue collage artist whose work is deeply rooted in storytelling and visual poetry.

Using vintage paper ephemera salvaged from forgotten books, weathered maps, and timeworn postcards, Simone weaves together fragments of the past to create entirely new stories. Her collages evoke a haunting sense of nostalgia—an invitation to find beauty in imperfection and meaning in the discarded. Each piece is a quiet reminder that what is overlooked can still become something remarkable.
