‘Art serves as my voice, so I talk with things that I pick up and collect.’ Willie Bester (b. 1956)
Willie Bester is a South African artist who uses found objects to create art pieces. In his work, ‘Transition’, Bester uses objects he has bought from second hand shops, found at junk shops and picked up from the street to explore the persistence of racism, inequality and violence in post-apartheid South Africa.
