Adam & Other Stories by Azaria Mbatha

Adam & Other Stories is a linocut print by the South African artist Azaria Mbatha (1941–2018), created as part of his series of narrative works drawing on biblical themes. Mbatha’s linocuts are known for their densely patterned, story-filled compositions that reinterpret biblical narratives through a visual language rooted in African imagery and printmaking traditions.

This print features images inspired by the stories of Adam and Eve, Noah’s Ark, and other Old Testament events.
