The legacy of Nelson Mandela motivates the human spirit and Jabu started his Freedom Series as his contribution to it. Mandela’s message of dignity, humanity, equality, peace and freedom was, and still is, a global one. Mandela had a profound effect on Jabu growing up in South Africa; Mandela’s selfless great spirit motivated young people to join in the fight to liberate themselves from the shackles of Apartheid. His courage and bravery helped light the fire in Jabu to advocate for the cause of global freedom non-violently. This series is ongoing and includes other iconic historical figures painted by Jabu.
