Rupert Cefai is a professional visual artist, his preferred artistic media painting, drawing, digital photography and the combination of both traditional (painting and drawing) and ‘new’ media techniques. Trained as an Interior Designer, and after spending 14 years in the business, Rupert has shifted his focus from design to art and is now dedicating his time solely to artistic projects. As an artist Rupert exhibits on a regular basis, taking part in a number of solo and collective exhibitions. His work reflects his own enjoyment of all subjects ranging from the human figure through to abstracts and landscapes, showing his fascination with that blend and balance in art that stands on the line between the real and the abstract. His main exhibitions reflect the inspiration he finds in different aspects of life such as everyday human experiences (Effigy, 2005), the built environment (C, 2007), dance (Tektika Tango, 2010) literature (Ġmiel il-Ħrafa, 2011) and music (Spirtupront, 2011). In 2008 he had his first solo exhibition abroad (Narratives in Light), at the Chiesa Degli Artisti in Piazza Del Popolo, Roma which earned him an invitation to participate in the Biennale D’Arte Internazzionale di Roma 2012. In 2011 he collaborated in 638 Kilo Tanz, a contemporary dance festival in Essen where he also sat on the adjudicating board of the festival. In 2012, Rupert held a solo exhibition titled Tiers of Truths at the Framers Gallery in central London and a follow-up exhibition in Malta at Christine X Art Gallery, Sliema, Malta. Rupert also has a passion for tango, he is also an editorial cartoonist and contributes regularly to Maltese national newspapers. For over 2 years, Rupert was a permanent guest on TV program Folji.
