Cape Town - Emotions ran high as friends and fellow artists previewed a mural dedicated to the memory of a budding young artist from Nyanga East on Sunday.
The mural was painted on the walls of the Nyanga East Rugby Stadium at Emms Drive.
The preview follows a series of fund-raising events to pay for the funeral of Zolani Nikani, 23, also known as Vocal Zoid, who was stabbed by a close friend last week after a brief argument.
Equal Rights Forum leader Thulani Phike said the mural was a dedication to the family for the sacrifices Nikani made in uplifting youngsters through arts in the community.
