‘Sketch A Day Africa’ Exhibition In CSAD Foyer

Currently on display in the CSAD B Block foyer is a selection of images from ‘Sketch A Day Africa’, a project undertaken by BA Illustration undergraduate Gideon Summerfield. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Writing about his decision to focus on Africa for the project, Gideon says: “I realised I knew almost nothing about the continent and what I knew, was largely based on a steady stream of negative stories about wars, failing states, the spread of disease and the impact of corruption. I decided that ‘Sketch A Day Africa’ would feature 365 Africans and that the majority would be people who are talented, innovative, successful, inspirational and brave.” ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
