Ree Treweek and Jannes Hendrikz are well known as the South African-based art collective Blackheart Gang and sister studio Shy the Sun. They create magical, mysterious projects that are beautifully complex, multi layered and impossible to describe. Ree and Jannes founded Shy the Sun to work predominately on commercial projects, while The Blackheart Gang remains largely a vehicle for self-initiated projects.
Their work as Shy the Sun for United Airlines or The Beatles Rock Band game have created quite a buzz, but it was their first personal project “The Tale of How” featuring Ree Treweek’s gorgeous, darkly surreal illustrations, that truly kick started their international acclaim.
