The work of AD-Reflex is about duality and unexpected juxtapositions of beauty and decay.Their art resists and transcends perceptions of traditional boundaries on every level.
AD-Reflex is the acclaimed contemporary South African artist duo of Johan Conradie and KarlGustav Sevenster, known for their bold, experimental artworks that merge oil painting, photography, digital manipulation, and Swarovski crystal embellishments.
Formed in 2015, AD-Reflex bridges the worlds of traditional fine art and digital innovation, creating works that oscillate between abstraction and representation. Their process includes freezing objects in ice, re-photographing them, and fusing elements of mythology, ritual, and contemporary culture into visually arresting narratives.
From mythical landscapes to reflections on war, devotion, and modernity, AD-Reflex invites viewers to explore the sacred and the profane through a unique alchemical fusion of media.
Their work has earned international recognition for its originality and conceptual depth.
