"Weave, stitch, mould, felt, sculpt - all methods to celebrate the textures of winter.
When Surfaces Speak returns to the tangible
within a world that increasingly prioritises the digital and the abstract. It is an invitation to
look more slowly, and to perceive with more than just the eye.During the quieter, colder months of winter, we return to our senses and to the quiet beauty of everyday things that reconnect us to the world that surrounds us."
The Ateljee at La Motte Wine Estate, Franschoek

Here's a quick snap before they are finished up and installed.
Hopefully more to follow soon. Huge gratitue to Tandekile for the invitation and trusting my vision.
