Staying creative through COVID-19

In between trying to do house chores and refreshing Facebook feeds, a lot of creatives are keeping themselves positive and energised. For local visual artist Goabaone Mogwe, who resides in Gaborone North and has been doing art as a hobby, coronavirus has provided him an opportunity to get more creative whilst living life under lockdown. Mogwe is using technology creatively to stay connected with people and keep their spirits up with his digital art that mostly consists of cartoons.

Showbiz interviewed the artist to see how he is faring during this crisis. Currently adhering to the extreme amount of ‘social distancing’, Mogwe’s hobby has already become part of his routine, with most time spent drawing in the digital platform of his computer.
