JOHANNESBURG-BASED TERENCE MALULEKE’s journey into painting wasn’t a direct one, coming after he first established himself as a gifted visual developer for prominent animation studios such as Walt Disney and Triggerfish. But luckily for Terence and his growing fanbase, his foray into the world of fine art has been a roaring success - it even led to a solo exhibition at Southern Guild in Cape Town in October/November 2023. Titled “Grace in Grand-Bassam”, the show is a vivid reflection of a month-long residency at La - a unifying element that transcends age, gender and social status. Here, Terence shares his creative process and inspiration - and his love for good cowboy boots.
