‘Dream weaver Igshaan Adams’ giant candyfloss clouds carry the complex story of his life’ Crafts

Igshaan Adams: Weerhoud explores the intricate and poignant works of South African artist Igshaan Adams. Born in Bonteheuwel, Cape Town, Adams's art navigates the complexities of identity, culture, and religion. This publication, accompanying his exhibition at The Hepworth Wakefield, delves into his unique use of textiles, beads, and found objects.

Simon Wallis introduces Adams's background and artistic practice, while essays by Nkgopoleng Moloi and Marie-Charlotte Carrier analyse his innovative techniques and the themes of movement and memory in his work. The book features stunning illustrations of Adams's tapestries, revealing his ability to intertwine personal and communal narratives.

An essay by Alfred Hinkel adds depth with personal anecdotes, and an interview with Adams provides insight into his creative process. Igshaan Adams: Weerhoud offers a profound look at an artist who bridges cultural divides through his transformative art practice.
