Grada Djeri (1956 – 2014) studied painting at the Academy of Fine Art in Belgrade, but it would be in photography and music that he would ultimately leave his mark.

In 1992 Djeri moved from Yugoslavia to South Africa and settled in Cape Town. In his Bohemian Venken Lane studio, just off Long Street, Djeri refined his technique to close the gap between his love for both painting and photography. He transformed the traditional photographic printing process into an opportunity to paint, and by doing so, brought his black and white portraits to the surface in unusual, painterly and unique ways.
