This local visual artist is taking over London

Cape Town - Mother City born and Joburg residing artist Lady Skollie is opening her first solo show in The UK on Thursday, 19 January at London's Tyburn Gallery.

Lady Skollie's (real name Laura Windvogel) first solo exhibit is called Lust Politics and runs until Saturday, 4 March.

The artist has done a 'takeover' of the gallery in the lead up to her exhibit and painted a mural in the renowned gallery called Khoisan Kween Mother.
