Rocky Mafafo

Painter and musician Rocky Mafafo was born in Galeshewe, Kimberley, South Africa. He studied at the Mmadikoti Technical College for a course in water purification at Hammanskraal and Rorkes Drift Art and Craft Centre in Natal.

He exhibited his work at institutions throughout South Africa including Louise Rame Gallery in Kimberley, Art Connection in Cape Town, The Cape Gallery, the Johannesburg Art Centre, Fuba Art Centre, Bloemfontein Gallery, and Kimberely Society of Art at The William Humphreys Gallery, and he participated in a group exhibition in Israel. Mafafo won first prize at the Galeshewe Recreational Centre exhibition for black art in 1975.

Mafafo’s work is in the public collections of institutions including the William Humphreys Art Gallery and the Duggan-Cronin Gallery both in Kimberley, South Africa. His paintings fall within the traditions of representational art. He delights in canvassing the way in which the residents have copied their building styles from the Europeans using whatever they managed to lay their hands upon and imagination to fashion their houses. Watercolors are Mafafo's favorite medium, giving him the most freedom of expression.
