March 8, 2010 until March 31, 2010 // AVA - Association for Visual Arts // Cape Town, South Africa
The AVA in partnership with Spier invites you to the opening of WATERS - VESIA - AMANZI featuring works by Eunice Geustyn, Kristiina Korpela, Leena Mäki-Patola, Witty Nyide, Jaana Partanen and Jill Trappler. The exhibition will be opened by Jesse Laitinen, the program and consular officer for the Finnish embassy in Cape Town. It opens today and runs until Wednesday, 31 March 2010 at 13h00. Waters - Vesiä - Amanzi brings together three Finnish artists living in Kuopio, surrounded by lakes, and three South African artists from Cape Town and Durban, living on the shore of oceans.
Water is the beginning of all life on earth and is a prerequisite for survival. Water separates and connects people. Each artist on the exhibition explores Water in a different way; there is social, environmental, elemental and personal commentary in a range of media from photography to ceramics, painting, paper work, print making, installation and video.
