Top Cape Town Artists at These Four Walls Art Gallery
'Periphery: Observations of urban life in paint' features work by young Capetonians Gabrielle Raaff and Tamsyn Lancaster
Gabrielle Raaff's fascinating work – delicate watercolours modelled on Google Earth images – was seen at last year's Spier Biennale.
Her work uses colour washes with the greatest of economy and uses the white ground of the paper to great effect, resulting in images that afford snapshot-like glimpses of figures and activities familiar to denizens of the city.
Raaff graduated from the University of Stellenbosch and has for many years taught at the Red and Yellow School of Logic and Magic in Cape Town.
Tamsyn Lancaster’s work is widely known for its quirky originality and surprising colour-use. Her formal training and drawing skill are continually evident in work that may range in its subject but is always appealing and desirable.
