Greetings fellow steemians!
At the moment I am working on a new post that is taking a while to write. I will be posting it soon. In the meantime, I thought I would share some pieces that I exhibited recently at a group show in Pretoria, South Africa. The show took place at Fried Contemporary Art Gallery and was titled URBAN IMPRESSIONS.
Here is a short excerpt of the concept of the show:
Paired with sound the visual representations in the exhibition acquire new meaning, evoking a sensory experience in the viewer. Various aspects of life in the city are rediscovered and recontextualised: the breaking down of monuments, the erecting of new monuments, urban dilapidation and rejuvenation, city dwellers and everyday life in general. The artists bring their personal experience of city living, specifically within the context of Pretoria, to life.
I submitted the following two pieces for the show:
Title: When I reveal myself to you please look right through me
2017
Ink, acrylic, charcoal, oil pastel, abatement
32 x 45cm (Paper Size)
Title: I am here when the dust settles because I am the settled dust
2017
Ink, acrylic, downtroddenness
32 x 45cm (Paper Size)
Let me know what you think! I will be back soon with a new blogpost. Thanks for reading!
