ABOUT GABRIELLE KANNEMEYER :
Gabrielle’s work celebrates the diverse environment of her upbringing, capturing vibrant colourscapes that highlight the beauty of humanity across various landscapes with a touch of surrealism. Throughout her career, Gabrielle has been a dedicated advocate for inclusivity in the creative process, fostering welcoming and accommodating spaces for everyone involved, both in front of and behind the camera. Creating a sense of calm and safety during her collaborations is of utmost importance to her.
Notably, Gabrielle has collaborated with a diverse range of clients, including brands such as Daily Paper, Adidas, Nike, Apple Music, Gucci, Netflix, Venus, Havana Club and many others. In addition to her commercial work, Gabrielle is deeply involved in documenting South Africa's horse cultures, her lens is focused currently particularly on horse shows and communities in the Western Cape's Overberg region. In one of her long term projects, she has been documenting the lives of young riders aged between 9 and 21 in a small valley full of wild-roaming horses as they navigate the remarkable worlds they have created for themselves.
Beyond her own photography, Gabrielle is teaching these young riders the art of photography, equipping them with the tools to tell their own stories through their own lenses and create archives to preserve their stories for the future.
