Thousands of years ago the San, or Bushmen, painted cave walls and rocks depicting hunting scenes, religious beliefs, commercial life, dancing and their everyday struggle to survive. Some paintings are believed to be as old as 26000 - 27000 years. The tradition of creating rock art lasted until the late 19th century and the images remain in the areas the San people once lived even though the artists and their communities are long gone. Only recently has it been discovered that the paintings hold deep spiritual and religious meaning.

The people of the project create lino prints, which give much the same impression of life and surroundings, as did the paintings of the Bushmen. Local scenes and flora and fauna of the area have been captured and make wonderful images for wall hangings, cards and book covers etc.
