He completed a post-graduate diploma in painting at the Michaelis School of Fine Art, University of Cape Town, in 2010, and in 2011 received the Tollman Award for Visual Arts and the Absa l'Atelier prize. He spent six months in residence at the Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris, and works produced during this residency were exhibited at the Absa Art Gallery in Johannesburg in 2013. In 2019 he completed a three-month residency at SP ACED OU T, an institute located on an organic farm north-east of Berlin aiming to help artists enter into a dialogue with contemporary art far removed from the urban rush.
