Zonia Nel-Scheffer & Uwe Pfaff

Uwe Pfaff and Zonia Nel-Scheffer have produced work around the theme Heaspaces for their show at Artspace in April 2007. Zonia's colourful tongue-in-cheek paintings comment on the fast-paced world we live in. The works portray the chaotic and sometimes absurd state of mind found in modern society. The works have a heuristic quality but are indeed making comment on the stressful surroundings of the world today. In this exhibition she plays with words and idioms relating to the brain and the resultant humour of the works is at once clear through her exploration of how the human mind typically copes with modern life - using energy drinks and pills.

Uwe Pfaff has a special set of keys that open some very unusual, visual and tactile doors. Years ago his exhibitions consisted of legs detached from their bodies and bringing his development as an artist to a head his work for this show is about what goes on in his head when he is not sleeping. Headspace is for Uwe a place to run to, to escape from. Heavy metal entwined with the filigree of dreams. Uwe's work has had impressive media coverage, both locally and internationally and while critics strain the adjectives to describe the spirit made metal creations of Uwe Pfaff join us at Artspace for art that you can beat, metal that can sing bursting with potential sonic arias. Grey matter anti matter and mad hatters all welcome.
