Wegwysers Deur die Blinkuur
Step into Wegwysers Deur die Blinkuur, an exhibition where Stephané Edith Conradie’s work becomes a beacon, guiding us through the complex legacies passed down through generations. This mesmerising collection invites you to explore a space where art, memory, and identity converge. Join us for a sneak-peek walk-through and embark on a journey of discovery and reflection.
As a Print Media lecturer at University of Cape Town’s Michaelis School of Fine Art, Stephané’s research explores her social and economic realities in South Africa, informed by her extensive academic background.
Wegwysers Deur die Blinkuur poses a profound question: What happens when the next creole generation does not embrace their parents’ material culture? Set against the backdrop of the twilight moments before passing, this exhibition explores how rituals and practices are made more alluring at the golden hour before death.
