What happens when activism collides with artistry? For Jamie Joseph, the Zimbabwean-born, South African-raised founder of Saving the Wild, the answer is breathtaking. After nearly a decade confronting poachers, exposing corruption, and protecting rhinos on the frontlines of Africa’s conservation battle, Joseph is now channeling her passion into a new medium: art.

Through Saving the Wild, she is turning visual storytelling into a lifeline for endangered species. Collaborating with world-renowned photographers, artists, and graphic designers, Joseph has curated a luxury wall art collection printed on silk, linen, silver and satin. These aren’t just decorative pieces; they’re a call to action, blending creativity with conservation to protect Africa’s iconic wildlife.

“The idea started as a storytelling platform,” Joseph explains. “It quickly became activism. I found myself confronting syndicates, high-level corruption, and the systems that allow poaching to continue. Art is now another way to amplify that fight.”

The collection, launched at a recent event hosted by The Economist, features rhinos, elephants, lions, and pangolins. Buyers can order pieces online, tailoring designs to their spaces, be it a corporate office, lodge, or home. And 100% of the proceeds go directly into initiatives that aim to protect endangered species, push for stronger legislation, and safeguard the livelihoods of communities dependent on wildlife tourism.

Joseph highlights the human impact behind the conservation struggle. “It’s not just about rhinos. Millions of people rely on wildlife tourism, from game guides to lodge staff. Protecting these species means protecting livelihoods and communities too.”

With Saving the Wild, Joseph has created a beautiful triad: art, activism, and impact. The works are exquisite, the mission urgent, and the result is a unique way to experience conservation firsthand.
