We’re incredibly proud to share that Born of Light and Dust has been awarded Africa Wildlife Artist of the Year 2026.
This piece holds a deeply personal place in my practice—an exploration of presence, resilience, and the quiet strength carried within the natural world. To see it recognised in this way is both humbling and profoundly affirming.
The Africa Wildlife Artist of the Year competition continues to play an important role in celebrating artistic excellence while supporting vital conservation efforts across the continent—something we are honoured to be part of.
With gratitude to the organisers, the judges, and to all who continue to support meaningful work that speaks for the wild.
