(“Progress” by Kevern
Sandalls)
Running in the Main Gallery of artSPACE durban is an
exhibition titled Human Nature? by
Kevern Sandalls.
This exhibition is predominately
about asking questions, not making statements. It is taking a look at the
everyday scenes around us that, when viewed in a critical light, show up the
complex relationship between humanity and nature.
Kevern began his photographic
career in 1988 with freelance work for the newspapers and assisting prominent
professional advertising photographers. After studying photography at Technikon
Natal, he began touring Southern Africa as a nature guide and fine art
photographer in1993. His combining of these two fields of skill has allowed him
to travel and photograph extensively throughout much of the remote and
beautiful landscapes on this subcontinent.
He is presently building an ‘off
the grid’ home in the KZN Midlands and intends to continue exploring the realms
of creative and physical expression in commune with nature.
