About Porky Hefer
Porky Hefer focusses on conceptual precepts that manifest in 3D forms, in a variety of executions from public sculptures to product and furniture design. Fascinated by the reactions and energy a piece can generate, he embraces Africa and the skills and processes that are readily available indigenously, rather than trying to emulate foreign processes.
Hefer is one of South Africa’s most awarded creative people, having spent some 16 years working in advertising. BMW, American Express, Nike, Coca-Cola and Durex are just some of the big brands he has worked on. In 2007 Hefer established the creative collective Animal Farm. He currently works as Porky Hefer Design where he strives to produce work that elicits a smile and sticks in your head.
