Liza Grobler- White Termite

What is there not to admire about a woman who had two gentlemen effortlessly crocheting on the floor of Brundyn + Gonsalves on opening night last week.

Liza Grobler's exhibition White Termite, loosely taken from Eugene Marais's Soul of the White Ant - similarities between our human bodies organs working separately but with a common purpose parallels the ants nest.

Its mixed media, from crochet performance, to the intricate beadwork below, as well as painting, sculpture and drawing.

Different artist- caught everyone's eye- very fresh

and here's our very own living art treasure Bruce Gordon, its true - complete with a tattooed SANG acquisition number- doing a very nimble...that's all folks!
