Artist Statement
Spirals, stippling and coral-effect merge to capture the splendours of the sea
Follow the twirl that runs diagonally across the surface as wave silhouettes
Uncharted waters ebb
Take the plunge
Set sail unto dreamscapes in the haze
Let the seashells mesmerise
Artist Biography
Durban-based artist-writer Sanabelle Ebrahim has attended various art classes from the age of six. Art to her is a five-star career. She lives by the motto: Let your life’s ambition be guided by an innate passion. She is a member of the KwaZulu-Natal Society of Arts (KZNSA) and Durban Art Deco Society.
Her Arabic calligraphy pieces are inspired by the work of Sadequain. She participated in Arabic calligraphy workshops facilitated by Soni Art Studio (2009) and Haji Noor Deen (2010) at the Al-Ansaar Souk. Some of her prints are available at L’Art Arabe Gallery Musgrave Durban.
She is the co-founder and media liaison coordinator for the Green Heart Movement, FrameSide Lounge, Book & Design Fair Durban, and Board Game Champions. She coordinates the display stands for Green Heart City projects at the Sustainable Living Exhibition.
‘Let the world be your canvas, your character a palette of hues, your voice… the paintbrush with which you etch your mark.’ – Sanabelle Ebrahim
