CAR MUGS

2019 - 2024

Cars, particularly 4WDs, are essential to modern desert life. They enable us to cross the vast expanses of country and see the most special places. In Mparntwe, people’s cars can feel like extensions of their personalities.  While living in the desert I developed a penchant for making mugs to honour the cars in my life. The drowned, burnt, broken, cable tied and sticky taped, borrowed, and only dreamed of. Now im the car mug guy.
