From time to time

Playing with surfaces, textures and patinas, artist Uwe Pfaff flirts with the metaphysical. Be sure to view his new body of work entitled “Navigating Time”, on show from 25 May to 11 June at the G2 Gallery in Cape Town.

Uwe is a master of diverse media, known particularly for his compelling work in metal, which feature engaging forms that tease the onlooker with their powerful presence. Posing the perennial questions, “What is time? What shape might it be?” he muses, “Are we running out of time or is time running out of us?”

This exhibition is iconic Uwe, shape-shifting from earlier gleaming nickel-plated works to nuanced copper and brass. The artist clothes his “psychonauts” with imagined skins – a shared delight where the artist has visualised and captured the magical travels and re-entry phenomena of the dream world.

We recommend you go and engage with these interesting works and the concepts behind them. G2 is situated at 62 Shortmarket Street, Cape Town.
