‘touchstone building’ - dale yudelman
Merge - an ongoing series of five collaborative exhibitions beginning with the theme of water and set to change every 3 months - five photographers examine five elements - each from their own unique perspective.
The participants of this group show -
Ruvan Boshoff, Greg English, David Gur, Trevor Samson & Dale Yudelman met in the 1980’s and worked for various news media during the most turbulent years of the apartheid era. Since those days their career paths have diverged although their personal friendships have endured.
The elements: water, fire, air, earth and aether are commonalities in the experience of our humanity; influencing: cultural and spiritual geographies, social climate and natural ecologies. In their exploration of these powerful themes, a portrait of the times and environments in which we experience these forces is set to evolve.
