‘Eve’ is the name of a solo exhibition by Nonnie Roodt from 2 to 26 February at ArtBox Gallery,
86 Skilpad Road, Monument Park. Eve and seeds have always been associated with the feminine and the beginning of life. Seeds also have a rich history in the myths and stories of Greece and other cultures, such as the story of Persephone. Eve as earth mother is seen, for instance, in fertility figures such as the ‘Venus of Dolní Věstonice’ and the ‘Venus of Willendorf’. In her work, Nonnie wishes to convey the qualities of Eve and seeds by using the circle as a symbol of totality, perfection, unity and completeness. Colour, chance effects and intuitive mark-making contribute to the end result. For more information phone Etienne van Zyl: 083-384-2402.
