​Contemporary South African Art

Phula Richard Cauke was born in 1977 in Giyani, Limpopo Province.

He has a number of subjects that make up his social comment and are keenly and wittily observed:
Politicians driving in their cars, personages of historical or religious stature like Van Riebeeck, Shakespeare, Desmond Tutu, or Emperor Selassie.

Women are often carved to represent the circle of life passed on for generations; a mother, a sangoma and a sister enduring and repeating the patterns of existence.
