It has been great to take a few days to reflect on my painting journey, now that my solo exhibition REALITY CHECK is hanging so happily at the AVA. Hanging out there is fun too, meeting old friends and new to chat about the work and my attempts to marry several approaches in the same space. Mostly we agree that it is always worthwhile to look a little closer…
Alongside my show are 2 curated shows. The group show of prints attracts interesting people, especially for the talks and workshops.
Talks, walkabouts & performances are free, but to book and purchase tickets for the workshops (R350 pp, incl materials – limited to 10 people) go to: https://www.thundafund.com/project/avagallery/
