About this artwork
A raging red rhino, symbol of power and courage. This abstract wildlife safari work uses symbols that relate to African positive concepts. For example, sharing, friendship, no fear, creativity, etc. Gadd uses ancient symbols in conjunction with a modernistic approach to reflect the animals she loves. Ann's favorite place is being in the bush with her camera. She's been charged by elephants, had a lion crouch to pounce on her, and spent time with…
the incredible white lions.

« Our lives are the canvas and, as such, we are both the creator and the creation. »
Ann Gadd, an award-winning South African painter, has exhibited nationally and in the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and Italy. In her works, she employs lightness and humor to reflect the profound, often using African symbolism to celebrate her heritage and illustrate her country's paradoxes. Usually painting in series, Gadd’s unique blend of naive and pop is translated through acrylics on canvas. Her ADD means she switches from series according to mood. Recently longlisted for the Visual Art Open 2024 UK, International Emerging Artist Awards. Finalist in the Singulart International Women's Day 2025 Award
