Dick, Guy du Toit, Ricky Dyaloyi, Paul Emsley, Kerri Evans, Guy STILL is the third in the Everard Read galleries' series of online group exhibitions. The first two (Staring Straight to the Future and US) served to re-frame existing works in the context of the pandemic. This latest group show comprises works primarily created by invited and gallery artists during lockdown, when most artists didn't have access to their studios, often having to adjust both their working methods and world views.
STILL references notions of 'stillness': from formal still life studies, to a slowing down in quiet contemplation. This exhibition imagines humankind's resilience and perseverance during an unprecedented time of uncertainty.
STILL presents a variety of responses that explore ephemerality, nostalgia, wistfulness, beauty and order as well as chaos and turbulence. From the epic, mythologising works of Ricky Dyaloyi, Blessing Ngobeni and Dylan Lewis, to the more serene works of Mmakgabo Sebidi, John Meyer and Caryn Scrimgeour – and everything in between – this exhibition is a pertinent snapshot of a very particular moment in time.
