FORMS Gallery is a dynamic structure for working with artists. It was founded by Anthea Buys in 2021 and works closely with ten artists, most of whom are in the early stages of their careers.
FORMS draws on gallery, institutional and independent curatorial models, presenting a programme that takes shape through a combination of online and in-real-life manifestations. At the heart of this programme are ongoing collaborations with artists who make work that is critically, aesthetically and politically important. Also central to the FORMS ecosystem are connections with like-minded spaces, people and organisations.

Khotso Motsoeneng is a self-taught painter and printmaker whose training in photography developed his keen eye for colour and form. Motsoeneng's practice seeks out an abstract formal language which brings together his keen observation of nature and intuitive perspectives on the relationship between different colours and emotions. He is particularly inspired by woodgrain as a trace of of natural processes, and looks to plant life as a metaphor for human development. Motsoeneng's brightly coloured canvases are also sites of emotional exploration, and participate in a complex symbolic system in which colour and emotion are intertwined. His work has been included in several group shows in South Africa, most recently at the AVA Gallery in Cape Town, and is represented in international and local private collections. A past finalist for the prestigious Cassirer Welz Award (2019 and the Emerging Painting Invitational Prize (2022), Motsoeneng is a resident artist at August House studios in Johannesburg.
