The Project



Fusion Flare
has its origin in a suburban Community Development & Upliftment Project that was started in October 2013.  A year later it is time to get intentional and sustainable

Fusion
is the process or result of joining two or more things together to form a single entity
  

Flare
is a sudden brief burst of bright flame or light
 



At the core of the final artworks there is a collaboration of ethne* and cultures** which produced something new and beautiful. 
It was made possible as a direct result of the freedom and opportunity all people have in South Africa today.

ethne - people of the same race or nationality who share a distinctive culture

culture  the total range of activities and ideas, beliefs, values and knowledge of a group of people with shared traditions, which are transmitted and reinforced by members of the group;
the artistic and social pursuits, expression, and tasted valued by a society or class, as in the arts, manner, dress etc.

The choice to create meaning & beauty is a privilege each artist has
Passion for colors, shapes, lines, patterns, textures and perhaps a message PLUS the excitement of a new day with all of its creative possibilities, becomes a way of expressing life
We are here but for a season, why should we not give of our best and be the best to each other?
