Exhibition:
2019 New Breed Winners Group Exhibition
Details:
Signed
Charcoal on Academia paper
117 x 155 cm
Price:
R10 000
Description:
The building of a wind farm comprises of many steps, one of which is the pouring of the base into a giant crater, which was created by blasting specialists. This forms the foundations of the turbine and it also houses the mechanics to prepare and carry the harnessed power to the grid. The structure is so big that one can see the roundness of the earth in the background and yet, when the turbine is complete, the base will not be seen again. The stark beauty of this slick engineering against the ancient Karoo landscape made me feel as small as an ant. I had to draw it.
