Parusha Naidoo is a South African artist and culinary curator. She uses food events and art as vehicles for resistance, to unite people and tell stories. Her paintings on canvas use colours, symbolism and imagery of survival and sustenance inspired by sunrise, sunset, the ocean, mountains, forests and tropical fruit.

Tapiwa practices cultural advocacy through food, art and performance work. Primarily known as the founder and creative director of Tapi Tapi ice cream, he also shares his experience of being an Afro descendant through a self developed Afro-inspired calligraphy style. His work heavily features clays, sand, silt and charcoal from Africa as pigments and substrates.
