An exhibition with a 7,794 mile journey, Transatlantic Hemispheres includes the work of six South African contemporary artists, all of whom are based in Cape Town. The artists work in a variety of techniques and mediums which depict their own unique experiences within the current social and political climate of South Africa. All exhibition pieces were created after 2020, and broach subjects such as identity, migration, land, heritage, and language. Essentially prompting a collective examination of what art can be in a post-pandemic world.
Scott Eric Williams (1981) is a self-taught artist from Cape Town and a 2019 Andrew Mellon Award winning artist. He also studies and works in youth arts education. Williams uses diverse media, which range from sculpture with recycled materials and weaving to zines and wheat paste street art. Williams is moved to create empathetic work with an intention to proactively contribute to a multifaceted image of African identity. Williams’ work contemplates experiences of migration, land, hope, and trade within inner city contexts. Through his use of urban detritus and site specific materials he strives to make sense of city life.
