The Zulu and Xhosa word for “Hope,” Themba, is as beautiful as the feeling it embodies.

This character, with his black-booted feet casually crossed, rave goggles, and a rather striking red appendage, radiates confidence. His pocket brims with Rands and Dollars, suggesting he’s living his best life and feeling pretty good about it.

What truly sets him apart is his distinctive hair and bold fashion sense—far from an average dresser, he commands attention wherever he goes.

“I Themba” is a playful yet powerful piece, celebrating individuality, self-assurance, and the hope that fuels us to embrace life unapologetically.
