A common marketplace in South Africa for creative township entrepreneurs is the robots, where one can buy anything from car phone chargers to ear muffs, from knock-off sunglasses to country flags. What you’ll also find there are the awesomely talented Robot Artists.

Risking arrest, harsh weather and enduring the often the rude and judgemental comments of passer-bys, these artists are committed to sell their township art to support their families often left behind in Zimbabwe and Malawi…

How can you help?

Buy their art. It’s the simplest way to help support these robot artists. You’ll love their creative 3D paintings made from recycled materials (as seen in the short film above).
