Usually a painter, Endale has also begun to experiment with printmaking while collaborating with Senzo Shabangu and exploring different kinds of mark-making. Alongside these print experiments Endale is working extensively on new drawings and is soon to begin on a series of paintings. Endale’s paintings are rich and dark, built up through layers oil paint into incredibly tactile objects which combine and recombine texts and symbols in a meditative practice.
