What better time than Spring to celebrate, with tongue firmly in cheek, the bounty of mother nature, in all its guises. Participating artists of the Lady Garden exhibition at Cavalli explore the myth of the ‘eternal feminine’, an expressive display opening on the 10th of September and running until the 3rd of December 2017.

The natural world is often personified as female, and one with two faces; one, the passive and nurturing mother, the other, wild and uncontrollable. The earth, giver and supporter of life, was symbolised by woman, as was the image of nature as disorder with ‘her’ storms, droughts and other natural disasters.

Lady Garden postures itself as the empowerment and celebration of the female capacity within the framework of the natural world. All mediums apply and the selection will include figurative, abstract and conceptual works, as well as sculptural, photographic, performative and video graphic artwork.

The exhibition at the Gallery at Cavalli will open on the 10th of September 2017, from 4pm – 6pm. For more information, contact: 021 855 3218 | gallery@cavalliestate.com
