Artist Profile

Lambi Chibambo
Multi-Disciplinary Artist Based in Cape Town
Lambi aka Lamb of Lemila, is a Cape Town based multimedia artist. She holds a B.A in Film & Television and Media & Writing from The University of Cape Town, however she states that this has no bearing in her life so consider it a random fun fact. The characters in her illustrations are personified versions of one coming into and embracing oneself. Spiritually, mentally, physically and sexually. The character is identifiable by what resonates with the viewer. Although, most of her works are illustrations, she has also created paintings, sculptures and art installations. Her art career is a learning process, with each new project, she comes across new materials and methods of creating. The essence of being and what it means to exist is the source of her creative practice, what manifested forms this takes is subject to that period in her life.
