(Born in 1961 in Johannesburg, South Africa. Lives and works in South Africa.)

Craig Smith, artist, photographer, and designer, began his career in photography assisting top commercial and fashion photographers in 1981. In his work, he investigates the comparative irrelevance of modern life that is noticed when the reality is suspended for a moment and all the noise fades away. He leans into the ambiguity of abstraction and leads the viewer to a place of contemplation and discovery.

Smith has exhibited extensively in South Africa and participated in the Investec Cape Town Art Fair, FNB Art Joburg Fair, and RMB Turbine Art Fair.
