Note : Ephraim Ngatane was a non-conformist who navigated the uncharted territory of abstraction, which at the time was considered 'taboo' for especially black artists. His creative journey was one of self-discovery rather than pandering to the market's demand for a single recognisable style. Ngatane's use of the palette knife was key in his development of an increasingly abstract style that focused attention on apartheid's inequities, he seldom refrained from reflecting the social conditions in the urban areas in minute detail.
