Christine Scheid

I was born in Germany and studied art at University in Munich. I immigrated to South African in 1968 and in 1970 had a “one man show” at AVA. In 1973 I left to tour the world with three kids in a camper van.
From 1977 – 1996 I was principal of my art school in Germany. I’ve been a permanent resident of South Africa since 1998 and a member of SASA, AVA and STAG. I work in wood, stone and metal, combining sculpture with painting or etching. For me there are no ultimate rules governing beauty, ugliness, affluence, poverty, or their interrelationship.
