Colijn Strydom


R 7,000

'With a light touch and tongue-in-cheek approach, which are key to his art practice, Strydom lifts motifs and fragments from the Odyssey to situate and make sense of his own position as wanderer/wonderer. In his reflection on themes of belonging, desire, and intimacy, fantasy and reality are playfully interwoven, with Cape Town reimagined as a local Ogygia — as a contemporary paradise (or prison, depending on your perspective or access to its abundance).'

- Prof Ernst van der Wal, Department of Visual Arts, Stellenbosch University
