Biography
Greg Carlin began experimenting with image making from a young age. His love for drawing and photography saw him complete his honors degree in Fine Arts after which he went on to start the very successful South African alternative rock band Zebra & Giraffe.
Carlin’s work, through the numerous themes, is a visual exploration of cultural landscapes that define humanity. He explores the carnal entity of humanity and through collages gives a striking visual that reconstructs reality. He uses the lens to capture moment and express character, whether it be in Johannesburg, on tour with his band Zebra & Giraffe or his fiancé, Keagan Kingsley.
The engagement with Carlin’s work is a visual tease and through this external, he leads the viewer to engage with the internal. “My images are informed by the aesthetics I developed during my years of study” says the Tuks alumni who completed a degree in Fine Art and an Honours in Drawing".
