Empire

2015 group show at Everard Read Gallery, Cape Town

‘Reflecting upon the notions of an Empire, this group exhibition delves into the loaded historical and contemporary references of this heavily imprinted word.

In an historical context we can refer back to fallen Empires, ex Colonial Empires … The powerful notions of a domain, a kingdom, a superpower, no longer rests with colonial geography or cold war borders, and yet repercussions continues even after these ‘empires’ have fallen and new ones are being built.’
