| Signage: | Many South African visual artists have tended to immerse themselves in musical spaces. Feni’s career is arguably as much about his sculptures and drawings as it is about his love and fascination with music and musicians, a theme that he often depicted. A famous preserved photo of 1971 shows him in the company of jazz drummer Louis Moholo. |
