Quasiem is a graphic designer, graffiti artist and creative entreprene­ur. Growing up in Salt River, his backyard was the ultimate stomping ground of graffiti artists, and he took to the artform from a young age. His pieces are visible all over Salt River and Woodstock, and he also does street-art tours of the area. He says of the trip: ‘The drive was amazing thanks to the everchangi­ng terrain and quirky destinatio­ns along the way. It’s a feast for the imaginatio­n. The Kamiesberg felt like

I drove into a reference image. Painting in the middle of nowhere was magical. It’s so far removed from the city and graffiti’s natural habitat.’
