Fresh from scooping up the prestigious Cassirer Welz Award in 2019, local artist DuduBloom More presents a newly created body of work at the edgy Kalashnikovv Gallery in Braamfontein, touching on the dynamics of dealing with trauma. DuduBloom makes use of a combination of materials such as thread, paper, wool, perspex, inks and more to articulate this delicate topic looking particular at how different aspects of trauma are triggered, explaining that trauma can come from "a word, action, smell, taste, touch and/or sight, a memory can be reignited and bring back a traumatic experience,” she says.

The exhibition opens on Sat Feb 1 at 11:00 followed by an artists walkabout on Sat Feb 8.
