His works involve manipulating both organic and inorganic materials such as wooden twigs, metal and glass to change their context.[7]

He has presented solo exhibitions in South Africa and Italy and his work is permanently displayed at several museums. He was also recognised by the Stellenbosch Outdoor Sculpture Trust which commissioned him to create a work for the Hiervandaan…./ From Here…/ Ndisuka Public Sculpture Initiative.[8][9]
