Hang-ups..

Art portfolio- my work, press, Studio news

I have learned since art school not to be too precious about an artwork, and sometimes, when one revisit an older piece, to rework it again…do you do it sometimes too?

That is what happened to this piece now referred to as “Hang-ups”. It used to be a diptych titled: “The world at her fingertip”, but after I severed the cord and removed the world; I transformed the string into a noose.

This piece ‘hangs out’ at the Paradigm Gallery in the group exhibition: Stitched Part 1, and haha-mag.com did a lovely write-up of my work included in this exhibition. (see link below)

Bosch in Africa

Art portfolio- my work, Studio news

I’m also participating in another exciting group exhibition: Bosch in Africa! Curated by Sandra Hanekom, and inspired by Hieronymus Bosch of course.

I’ve made 6 small pieces for this show. I like to refer to these as my:

“Bosch in Afrikaans” series.

They were inspired by the pages in a lovely book called: Kinderland.

I used some pages which made reference to witches and decided to embroider some Boschian characters on rubber.

“Boomheks”

Groot vogel

“Tamaai mond”

“Verlore toorgoed (eier)”

“Plat op sy rug”

Verlore toorgoed (sprokie)

All the above have been framed for the exhibition, but unfortunately I don’t have photos of it except for this one: (which should give you an idea of what they look like now)

If you want to see more about this exhibition, then check out their page on Facebook. I am not on Facebook anymore otherwise I would have added a link for you 😉

The Woordfees in Stellenbosch runs from the 1st of March until the 12th. Enquiries: zelda.hamilton@gmail.com

“Shell” I stay, or “shell” I go?

Art portfolio- my work

“Shell” I stay, or ‘shell’ I go? Embroidery on rubber and found cloth. 2014

“A creature that hides and ‘withdraws into its shell’ is preparing a ‘way out’. This is true in the entire scale of metaphors. From the resurrection of a man in his grave, to the sudden outburst of one that has long been silent. If we remain at the heart of the image under consideration, we have the impression that, by staying in the motionlessness of its shell, the creature is preparing temporal explosions, not the say whirlwinds, of being. The most dynamic escapes take place in cases of repressed being…”

P111 from the book: The poetics of space by Gaston Bachelard (see here)

I read these words by Gaston Bachelard while working on this piece above for a group show which opens at the end of July, called :

The Industrial Karoo: Fear and loss. (curated by Katie Barnard du Toit)

This work as well as another is on its way to Bloemfontein, but I will post more information about this exhibition closer to the time.

PS: The title is deliberately (mis)spelled like that.
