David Bellamy is an artist, scientist, textile designer and environmentalist. He launched the Museum of Making and Tomorrow (MOMAT) in November 2018 as a platform for ‘thinking, making and communicating’, with a group exhibition titled ‘Artist’s Textiles’ at the Irma Stern Museum, UCT.
David’s paintings, sculptural vessels, textile designs and slow clothes refer to the natural world, from which we evolved and depend. His fabrics are produced using labour-intensive methods in the artisanal textile studio that adjoins his home.
Bellamy’s academic credentials reflect his wide-ranging interests. He holds a BSc degree in Advanced Biology (Wits, Johannesburg), a BA Hons in Fine Art and Critical Studies (St Martin’s School of Art, London) and studied Zen Shiatsu and Traditional Chinese Medicine (London College of Shiatsu).
