Kovacheva and based on the works of William Blake. We hope to edition soon a book entitled ‘Apparences’ (Appearances in English). This will be based on works from ten artists that have been here. Daks : October eighth through tenth you will be at the 1:54 Contemporary African Art Fair at Somerset House in London. Can you tell me a bit about that? van der Riet : The studio was invited to participate at 1:54 London last year as a special project. They discovered us and were surprised to find that artists they know had come and worked at the atelier. They asked us to present works from these artists at the fair. This year they asked us if we would like to come again but this time as a regular participant. So we accepted and are now busy preparing for that. Daks : Which artists will you be bringing? van der Riet : This year we will feature Diane Victor (South Africa), Mongezi Ncaphayi (South Africa), and Evans Mbugua (Kenya). Evans has been working here this year and this will be the first time we will feature his work.
