IN THE RESIDENCY November <strong>2014</strong> ANJA MARAIS South Africa / USA art@anjamarais.com // www.anjamarais.com My art projects are a hybrid of disciplines in moving images, sculpture, photography and installation that creates environments with a reference to nature and simultaneity. An assimilation of visuals where all boundaries washes away: yesterday, today and tomorrow becomes indistinguishable; dream and reality cannot be told apart; the horizontal and the vertical merges in a perpetual fugue. In an effort in my art practices to enter this motley world, I myself cascaded into multiple reflections like the stars in the galaxy that from high above looks down upon the solitary planet that is me. For a very brief moment the see-er has become the seen. The Latin derived word, frangible, describes my interest in the brittle and disintegrated nature of the substances in our world. My sculptures are stitched together by hand, my videos are thousands of still images stringed together, the textiles in my mixed media molder – to emphasize the fractured and the fragile. I prefer to work with natural materials with a transient spirit; paper, cotton, sisal, jute, bamboo and rock. It sustains my interest in ritual, the female form and of ancestors moving across the uncharted sea, steppe, ice, desert and forest.
ONE THOUSAND FACES I came to “ The Land of a Thousand Lakes” to study via Pixelation Animation the journey of the self-proclaimed outcast. In this 5 minute visual animation poem we follow a self-exiled girl through capricious snowy landscapes, unawares still carrying Spring with her. As she moves through the landscape she leaves ‘breadcrumbs’ in the form of black ink imprints of her face. Each one of these black facial mono prints resembles a fragment of herself and collectively become a thousand faces. As a thousand lakes make one country so a thousand faces become the girl.
