A striking Bushman print by Thamae Setshogo (Birds In A Row, 1992, edition number 24/30, 56 × 76cm). With thanks to the Rebecca Hossack Gallery. Setshogo (c.1968-2004) gained an international profile through his involvement in the Kuru Art Project. His work often refers to the small details of the natural environment in which he grew up, birds, animals and insects, which in his images become simplified almost to the point of abstraction. www.r-h-g.co.uk
