In retrospect: Through the years on canvas

Sabetha Mamokete Phetla
3 May 2024
Sabetha Mamokete Mamoloi Phetla (b. 1997) is a self-taught artist from Limpopo, South Africa.
Currently, she is based in Cape Town, where she had originally moved to pursue her tertiary education. In 2021 she was awarded a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Cape Town.
Like many artists, Phetla’s artistic journey began in childhood through drawing, colouring and observing the world around her. Later in life this curiosity towards creativity would lead her to her discovery of different mediums of fine art, namely photography, charcoal drawing and acrylic painting. Since 2016 she has quietly grown in her artistic practice, experimenting with abstraction and realism alike. From this a deep admiration for realism and representational art emerged. Using gesture, facial expression and colour to create striking portraits, she aims to capture the lived experiences of herself and those around her. She takes on the role of observer and storyteller, attempting to honestly portray the subject’s reality.
