Diana Carmichael offers a variety of collections inspired by life and art in Africa. The feel and look of each range is however unique and a reflection of the mosaic of talents available amongst African designers. Diana Carmichael Artworks is therefore proud to present the different artists and their contribution to each collection.
Diana Carmichael has been greatly influenced by the forms and textures of this extraordinary continent, where she captures the elusive "spirit" of Africa in her designs.
This comes from "having lived in Africa all my life and experiencing daily the natural beauty of the African sub-continent and its people." She sees a "richness about life in Africa" which she reveals in her designs.
Carole Nevin is very proud to have the opportunity to train and employ many previously disadvantaged individuals both locals as well as from other African countries, many of whom come from a local squatter camp.
As such the company has a policy of job creation and training especially for unskilled or semi-skilled workers. In her way, she contributes to redressing the ills of the past regime and poverty in Africa.
Passionate about Art and Design, Pamela Schroeder owns Aboda Designer Gifts and Origination, and is based in Johannesburg.
She consults to a wide range of clients regarding product development , design and trends, and also continues to teach and inspire young artists on the potential of Art as a unique means of self expression and career fulfilment.
