New work - Nuances: A Cape Journey

New work in the NUANCES series


Nuances: A Cape Journey
Limited edition print - photographic collage printed on archival paper
W:87cm x H:52cm (paper size, unframed)
2013
Edition Size: 5

This is the first Nuances work with a human figure present. The deeper message of the Nuances series centers around environmental conservation, and this artwork acknowledges the role that we as human beings play as part of nature. We form part of nature, but can also step up and take our place as guardians, not masters, of the natural landscape. While other Nuances works focus on specific areas in South Africa, this work incorporates photographs from various places in the Northern Cape, Western Cape as well as Eastern Cape.
