Life in the Colonies


Artist Statement: ‘For over two decades I have been making music and art. It has become clearer and clearer to me that both mediums are essentially the same thing. I work in the process of collage, whether it’s placing together samples I have collected and cut apart or whether it’s images I have collected and cut up...I place fragments of my subconscious together and try to create a new story that answers some of my questions yet asks more questions. I then work into this story with pens and paintbrush or synthesizers and instruments and try and create something that breathes on its own. Once it’s starts talking then I know I have got it right and I leave it be. My subject matter is an ongoing conversation with the world I live in and fortunately for me the post apartheid constant disaster that we call South Africa provides a drama more ludicrous more sad more exciting than any other society could offer. Which means I don’t have to look very far for constant inspiration. This exhibition will showcase some new work and will also be the first show of mine to work with prints of unseen work that I have created over the last five or six years. I will also be having the first listening session of my new album ‘Life in the Colonies’ at the opening show and I’m very excited to show how both my mediums are essentially the same thing and how the imagery works hand in hand with the music.’ XXX Felix 2019
