Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela was born into the Xhosa royal family on 18 July 1918 and died on 5 December 2013.
Mossel Bay really knows how to celebrate Nelson Mandela. The local tourism centre commissioned an artist to create a supersized sculpture made of him completely made from recycled metals. This 5m tall statue of Nelson Mandela (in celebration of Madiba’s century) was meticulously put together, piece by piece, by Boshoff Botha. The artist went above and beyond by documenting the life of Mandela across the front of the sculpture. The longer you stare at the statue the more nuts, bolts and other bits you see that turned an idea into a metal sculpture and into a masterpiece of note.
Please be stealthy when searching for the cache because this is a very high muggle area.
