  that seem utterly different, and to be able to Connect the seemingly Unconnected". - William Plomer -

On a personal level, Ian has come to realize that his true calling in life is as an entrepreneur and visionary.
He has the ability to recognize opportunities and to take his ideas and develop them into strategies and plans of potentially massive profitability. To this end he is developing other business interests including hospitality and tourism, internet marketing, new networking models, alternative health and wellness techniques and traditional African herbal medicine.

 

 
Ian Bentley, representing Safrika Development Services,  started his life as a very talented draughtsman and painter. While still an art student he won the award of Top Local Artist at the 1974 East London Expo, to the chagrin of some artists of international renown.

Being brought up with a strong social conscience in South Africa during the Apartheid era, Ian’s art suffered. He dedicated most of his first 40 years to uplifting the poor, the weak and the disenfranchised. After the birth of the Rainbow Nation in 1994 he focused on resolving disputes, developing consensus, restoring relations between communities and the police, promoting integrated development planning and developing entrepreneurial potential.

Safrika Development Services focuses on community safety and crime prevention (a specialized and important niche market, given that South Africa will host the 2010 FIFA World Cup). A sister company, Safrika Training Services, was recently launched to capitalize on the opportunities that have subsequently presented.

On a personal level, Ian has come to realize that his true calling in life is as an entrepreneur and visionary. To this end he is developing other business interests including hospitality and tourism, internet marketing, new networking models, alternative health and wellness techniques and traditional African herbal medicine.

Ian is a maverick. He does most things differently because he is by nature a lateral thinker, constantly hatching new ideas, developing original concepts and finding better ways of doing things.

"For the last decade my work has emerged in response to my inquiry into solutions to the numerous challenges facing geographical communities globally. Key among them is that technology has given rise to communities (work colleagues, suppliers, business partners, etc) that have little to do with geographical proximity. Globalization has contributed to an economic landscape with no precedence. There have been a plethora of factors that have contributed to a shared fear of the unknown, although that is precisely what we are called to become cognizant of, and this is experienced with the least trepidation through art".


 


Yvette Dubel, Cultural Fusion co-founder, Source artist enthusiastically shares here creativity and vision to advance the mission of SICU SSG.  She is one of the supporting forces behind the most popular SICU ART group, and her work will add value both to SICU and for its global partners and members even from here on.

 

Mrs. Dubel studied painting. She has been painting for more than twenty years; her work has been shown both in solo and group exhibitions. She has been exploring art as an intervention in community development context for approximately a decade;

the work was influenced by work in community mental health delivered via expressive therapies.

 

She has been working with creative expression and consciousness for two decades; her current project unites several issues central to sustainable development and community renewal, and has accompanied a move into installation and digital art. This work has been facilitated by an evolving expertise in intangible assets such as Attention, trust, social capital, etc.

 

Dubel works with researchers in ICT, social responsibility and community renewal to develop the definition of art based discovery models and processes based on current Cultural Fusion-Art as Philosophy project, also to assist in identifying issues related to attention, quality and expression (i.e. intangible assets) and theirpossible measurements.
