Living in exhile was created on a South African Navigation Chart of Mossel Bay and Approaches to Mossel Bay. Maybe you don’t at first like this at all, it’s been awhile since you last confronted waves and felt their strange push and pull on your legs as you wade out to mid-thigh depth. You can still just see the ribbed sand on the bottom and the shadow of an occasional rock. A mysterious strand of seaweed drifts by, you know it is safe but you have to tell yourself it is. You never quite forget the childhood fears of what might be lurking below the surface and now you’ve remembered how cold it feels. You are going to have to make yourself get under, gradually dip yourself deeper into the chilling water, it seems impossible thinking you’ll never be able to make yourself do it and then, slowly you let yourself sink forwards And then you are in, you are used to it – safe, free and (weirdly) warm too. A more adventurous part of oneself has come to life. And when you emerge, dripping and pleasantly tired and make your way to the warm beach, you bring that part of yourself with you back from the sea, where it had been living in exile, waiting for you.

South Africa
Im a female artist from Cape Town, South Africa. I have been painting for the last 20 years, with no formal art education. My journey started with a box of Vintage Dress Patterns which was turned into a skirt on a metal wired Mannequin and from there to canvas. I have sold many pieces all over the world like Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Madagascar, San Francisco, New York etc. I have exhibited in London at the Art of Africa Gallery. Currently Im working with good old fashion Brown Paper and Vintage Navigation Charts. I only sketch woman and make use of pencils, charcoal and Acrylic paint.
