I am a glass artist from Swaziland who has been practising as an artist in South Africa from 2010 to date. I have managed to learn from glass blowing videos and had short workshops with international visiting glass designers in my journey.  I believe in growth, learning to teach others and becoming independdant.  

 

I have been given a chance to do for 12 months an artist residency program at Skeppsta Hyatta in Sweden  from 01 August 2016 to 31 July 2017 where I will be taught and be exposed to the long history of Swedish glass art, learn how to run and mantain a glass studio as well as design for mass production of my works and market my art at on international platforms.

 

I need 7200 USD (R101 000) to use for my monthly upkeep while being trained in Sweden for 12 months. 

 

Please help fund me to make this training a possibility as it will be help me refine my glass forming and business skills in glass. 

 

HOW THE FUNDS WILL WORK

 

  • I need funds for monthly groceries for a year - 350 USD per month for 12 months = 4200 USD
  • To promote and advertising for solo exhibition I will have at the end of the residence - 1500 USD
  • To purchase a laptop and a small camera to use and document the processes I will be going through 1500 USD

 

Please help me to help myself become independent and not become abeggar yet I have a ttalent and skill.
