You Cannot Pass (2024) Ζωγραφική από Dunc Ebedes

Artist Statement

A little bit about me: I started painting last year. I don't know anything about art, and I'm still learning the fancy names for all the colors and art terminology. A few years before that, I was living on and off the streets here in South Africa. I knew I had to change my situation; I knew I had something to share. Better things were coming my way, and dying in sin and depravity was not going to be my end. My voice has cried from deep to deep, and because of that, I can create and express art from a profound place within my soul. I paint because of the urgency to express, the desire to say what I need to say. I paint knowing where I've come from and where I'm going. Living can be suffering; surviving is finding meaning in the suffering. My character and experiences have forged me stronger. I'm not chasing fame or money, but I hope to inspire others through my art, knowing that anything is fixable if you dig deep enough. In the darkest night, let the lightning guide you. This is my story....Me paint, I am Cave Man. Big rocks and sky, strong sun. Me, with stick and stone, make lines & color. Me show life. Hunt beast, find food. Me and tribe, strong together. Fire burn, warm. Me Cave Man, tell story on wall. Ebedes 2024
