Sanell Aggenbach is an artist skilled in many creative outputs. Through painting, sculpture and printmaking she creates poetic visual relationships between materials and imagery that comment on the South African reality. Her work draws from a variety of figurative sources, both in media and daily life, which she blends with a playful ambiguity and soft parody. Her quietly disarming artworks address many poignant issues. Sanell and I discuss the underlying cultural attachments to land in South Africa and reflected on key moments in her artistic career.Host: Natasha NormanGuest: Sanell AggenbachMade possible by Latitude Aparthotel and Sean Loots as Studio Manager.

Michael Amery
Michael Amery is a painter of landscapes shaped and moulded by humankind. His methodical drawing and painting techniques mimic the construction of scenery by human industry, but his interest in the land as holding a symbolic value of culture and identity is something we discuss in this episode. Alien plant species that have become iconic visual markers of South African land are charged to display beauty despite the conflicting circumstances of their colonial history. Whether natural or man-made the far reaching effects of humanity’s impact on land are deeply felt in Michael’s visual and intellectual pursuits on canvas.Michael's Website: https://michaelamery.com/Michael's Gallery: https://www.131agallery.com/ NOTES from our discussion for further interest:David Krut Projects is a gallery and print studio based in Johannesburg. Jane Bennett is an American political theorist and philosopher. We discuss ideas from her influential book "Vibrant Matter: A Political Ecology of Things" published in 2009.
