Born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa, Gavin Goodman was immersed in the rich beauty of African culture from an early age. He began his career as a cinematographer in the local film industry, primarily shooting TV commercials, before transitioning into commercial and fine art photography. In 2021, he was awarded the prestigious Hasselblad Masters in the Art category. Goodman’s work merges traditional African elements with a clean, modern aesthetic, characterised by a minimalist approach to composition, refined lighting, and a complementary pastel colour palette. More recently, he has been integrating AI into his creative process, using it as an extension of his artistic expression. His recent exhibitions include Africa Foto Fair (February 2023) and a solo show in Abidjan (May 2024).

Upon returning, Khumalo translates these experiences into vibrant, intimate portraits that reflect his deep reverence for African culture and storytelling.Khumalo has exhibited at 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair in New York (2024) and London (2024).
