on canvas by Janine Jollands)
Faces of Durban by Janine Jollands is an exhibition coming
to artSPACEdurban on November 19.
“This portrait
series draws inspiration from the faces of Durban and the cosmopolitan nature of
my city. As a proud and passionate child of Africa, I find beauty in the
diversity of her people and the vibrancy of her landscapes,” explains Jollands.
“My work is less
figurative and more abstract, using colour and mark-making to convey the
energy, spirit and character of each individual. From the Durban surfer dude to
the Afro's enthusiast to the sassy Clicks cashier, these portraits hope to
encapsulate the vigour and life of this compelling city I call home,” she adds.
Faces of Durban runs from November 19 at 11h00 to December 1
at 16h00. artSPACE durban
is situated at 3 Millar Road
