| Artist Bio: |
Surita Bouwer, a Pretoria-based part-time artist, explores a range of styles, from abstract to realistic. Her work, primarily in mixed media, acrylics, and oils, is a reflection of her emotions and biblical inspirations. A lifelong passion for creativity has driven her artistic journey since a young age. While self-taught, she benefited from art as a subject in high school. Surita, a passionate, creative, and experimental artist, aspires to further develop her skills and share her unique perspective through her art. |
| Inspiration | The theme of "Melting Moments" suggests that while time may seem to slip away, life's precious moments should be cherished and celebrated. The African woman's dance embodies this sentiment, serving as a reminder to embrace the present and live fully. The foreground showcases an African woman, her vibrant attire a testament to the richness of her heritage, engaged in a joyful dance. Her movement is dynamic and expressive, suggesting the fleeting nature of time, while in the background the iconic image of the melting watch, borrowed from Dalí, symbolizes the passage of time. |
