Faith47 Show In Brussels
One of South Africa's most exciting young visual artists, Faith47, will open her latest show in Brussels on Oct. 17th, following her participation to the ARTotale - Leuphana Urban Art Project in Lueneburg, Germany.
Within her work Faith47 makes important comments about a number of issues significant in her homeland and around the world including female empowerment, mass-media input and propaganda, inequality, violence and poverty. Despite broaching such potent issues Faith47’s style is strong but subtle, so that whilst an observer may be initially struck by the quality and beauty of her work, this is often followed by a more gradual recognition of a powerful message.
No New Enemies & Wallbreakers present 'Epitaph'.
An installation and video presentation by Faith47, Inge Beckmann & Rowan Pybus.
Vernissage Saturday Oct. the 17th | 18:00 > 21:00 | with music by Dj Dark Matter
at MR-EGO | 29 Rue Des Pierres | 1000 BXL
Epitaph is an exploration of lost spaces entered through sounds and images to reveal the echoes of empty rooms, flakes of paints, swollen curves, fragile lines, stories hidden in the flat colors broken apart by wood and steel.
