Shine on, Pastelheart
On Friday, Durban was rocked by the news that artist Pastelheart had died.
I hadn't seen or spoken to Pastelheart for many years but pre-kids we used to rumble and stomp around the same parties.
I was always so taken by his quirk and uniqueness.
The last time I saw him was at an art installation party near the harbor; his hair was long and wild and he wore a bright orange Blades of Glory type onesie; he was on fire that night.
It's always so hard to come to terms with the finality of death - especially when the person is young and so full of creative genius.
Rest in peace mr.
