 "A Crush For Solange (And Besides, The Coolest Girl In Cape Town)
Artist and Film Student, Cape Town
Hailed by Vogue as the coolest girl in Cape Town, the 20-year-old South African artist Tony Gum is hitting all the right notes. She is an ‘Instagram Art Star’, posting her eye-catching photographs on her news feed, thus using it as her own art gallery. Her trademark pastel colours, bold American sportswear and red lipstick on her feed has got us hooked, not to mention her work of Cindy Sherman-like self-portraits. Inspired by culture, religion, film and more importantly director Wes Anderson, she recreates classic branded advertisements for present times."

  1. Suggestions
    Read the poem, and the poet
    Paint the roses, and the vase
    Envy the role, and the actress
    Enjoy the soup, and the dish.

    Love the person, not the looks
    Miss the kiss, not the lips
    Ride the road, not the bike
    Smell the ocean, not the fish.

    Grow old, but stay calm
    Write bold, but speak less
    Dream often, but cry more
    Hope big, but make one wish.
