DION CUPIDO
Born in 1973 in Mitchells Plain, South Africa, Dion Cupido is largely self-taught and has come a long way from being a teenager doing graffiti on walls in the Cape Flats to the respected artist that he is today.
He discovered his ability to paint in 1990 while helping a friend with a school project. His first paintings were exhibited in 1998. In 2003 he joined the Arts & Media Access Centre’s (AMAC) professional development program, where he won the Truworths AMAC Academy of the Visual Arts award.
