Three Parts/More Harmony exhibition in collaboration with Ayesha Adam’s “Journeys” is at the Durban Art Gallery from the 10 July to 13 August 2011.
The Three Parts/More Harmony is a partnership between three countries, United Emirates (Dubai), Mozambique and South Africa (KwaZulu-Natal). This exhibition consists of 29 artists from diverse backgrounds with an aim of strengthening the bond between the three countries.
The exhibition also aims to tackle social issues that affect these three countries; such as racism, xenophobia, culture and language. Artists use their creativity to convey their messages with the use of different and diverse medium.
Ayesha Adam’s “Journeys” speaks about her upbringing as a child during the Apartheid era, when African people were oppressed, made to carry the dompass and were restricted to only live in certain areas. The inspiration behind her subject is derived from various kinds of God’s creation. Asian and African cultures are also the sources of her inspiration.
The Durban Art Gallery is open every Monday to Saturday, 08H30-16H00 and Sunday, 11H00-16H00.
