Sometimes people imagine that Bushman Art is only cave paintings made hundreds and sometimes thousands of years ago.
We are living artists in the contemporary world expressing our culture and mythology through a number of different media including print making, stained glass, sculpture and textiles.
Our giant myth tapestries are on permanent exhibition at the First People Centre in Nieu Bethesda. We also have prints, cushion covers, and other art work for sale. Our lead artist, Sandra Sweers, heads the collective in making tapestries
