Andrew is the son of Papua New Guineas most recognised artist, Mathias Kauage and paints full time.
Andrew Kauage initially starting out in a similar style as his late father but has since veered into adding his own flavour to his work. I am no art connoisseur but I believe there is more depth and dimension to his work.
The other day I came across one of his works and was captivated by it. I pointed it out to him and he described it as his take on Violence against Women. He pointed out the prominence of the three pair of eyes as representative of (abusive) men and their view of women as mere objects.
He had many more paintings displayed there, each with their own story. All of them are oil on canvas. He can also do up custom paintings upon request.
