Popstrukt at the Investec Cape Town Art Fair

Popstrukt recently made a bold statement at the Investec Cape Town Art Fair, collaborating with House and Leisure to merge functional design with live art. Two signature Popstrukt pieces - the ever-popular Sugar Cube Locker and the brand-new Salt Blue Bon Bon Side Table - were transformed into living canvases, brought to life by the talented Cape Town artist, Ricardo Nobangela.

The Investec Cape Town Art Fair: A Platform for Creativity

The Investec Cape Town Art Fair is a premier event in Africa’s art calendar, attracting collectors, artists, and industry insiders from across the globe. Celebrating its commitment to contemporary art and creative exchange, the fair showcases a diverse mix of emerging and established artists, galleries, and designers. It’s a space where innovation meets expression, making it the perfect setting for Popstrukt’s latest creative venture.

House and Leisure: Championing Design and Lifestyle

As one of South Africa’s most respected lifestyle and design publications, House and Leisure has long been at the forefront of showcasing the best in art, interiors, and innovation. Their collaboration with Popstrukt at the fair highlights their shared vision: making good design more accessible, engaging, and unexpected.

Ricardo Nobangela: Capturing Life Through Art

Ricardo Nobangela (aka Ricky Davinci), an urban planner, artist, and aspiring urban designer from Khayelitsha, brought his unique perspective to the collaboration. His work is deeply inspired by people, movement, and shared experiences in public spaces—whether in bustling streets, vibrant parks, or dynamic social gatherings. His live illustrations at the event captured these themes, turning the Sugar Cube Locker and Salt Blue Bon Bon Side Table into functional art pieces that tell a story of connection, space, and urban life.

This collaboration wasn’t just about showcasing creativity—it also gave followers of House and Leisure and Popstrukt the chance to own a piece of the magic. Two lucky winners will walk away with these one-of-a-kind illustrated furniture pieces.
