Cape Town’s art scene is thriving, and a new exhibition titled “Memoirs of Light” at The Argyle is a testament to that. The exhibition showcases the works of three talented artists who have captured different moments in time through light as the guiding vessel.
Each artist has presented their interpretation of light in their unique style, making the exhibition a treat for art lovers.
Ramzi Mansour explores the vulnerability of the human experience through his striking mixed-media portraits of women. His pieces showcase the raw vulnerability of the human condition through a modern female aesthetic, ultimately telling the story of hope through light. Each piece reflects the perspective of the woman portrayed in a way that exudes strength and hope.
Samantha Lee Osner’s pieces blend mixed media with minimalism to showcase the insignificance of personal struggles in the grand scheme of life and the simplicity and serenity of nature. Her artworks examine the relationship between humanity and nature, and the small details in each of her pieces draw in the viewer.
Martin Osner’s pieces embody the exploration of life, moments of hope and joy that remain etched in our subconscious for a reason. His timeless memoirs, etched deep in our subconscious, matured and sugar-coated in nostalgia for positive recollection. His paintings have a painterly texture that brings the artwork into the real world with an air of surrealism, making them a treat for art lovers.
The exhibition is a journey into the minds of three talented artists who have been able to evoke feelings of familiarity and nostalgia for years past through their art. The theme of the exhibition embodies a timelessness that makes it a must-see for art enthusiasts.
As you peruse the 18 new artworks, each piece tells a story that draws you in and encourages you to uncover your interpretation. The exhibition is open from 16 March to 8 April 2023, and the opening hours are from 10 am to 5 pm. So, make sure to visit The Argyle on 1 Argyle Street, Woodstock, Cape Town, and immerse yourself in the timeless art of “Memoirs of Light.”
