Percy Maimela (1985): - Self-taught, Maimela’s eclectic signature looms from the fibres of his humble beginnings in the dusty streets of Pretoria, South Africa. He began experimenting with various mediums in his childhood and it was in 2014 that he decided to pursue a career in Art on a full-time basis, this encouraged by his confidence in his discovered identity as a contemporary African Artist and the depth of his now matured subject matter and Unique Mediums.
Maimela’s subject matter, is mostly inspired by advocacy, centred in his identity as an African, a real patriot, his main objective is to create awareness and a call to action to each one of us to never forget where we come from, true to our African Spirit of Ubuntu which insists that I only am, because you are and for this to be his legacy.
