“CHOICES”
An exhibition of paintings and
sculptures by Audrey Rudnick
Artist Statement:
Never before have we had to face so many
choices in life; how we respond to situations, what attitudes we adopt, whether
we choose the good, the bad or the questionable. As an artist I believe that
every time I stand before an empty canvas I have a choice to make as I believe
that visually no matter what the subject, my heart dictates. My latest work is
a visual journey of technical experiments, excitement, joy, beauty and a
reflection of what I feel from my heart.
Biography:
Well known
artist and sculptress, Audrey Rudnick, was born in Durban and educated in
Zambia, Durban and later attended the Johannesburg School of Art, Ballet, Drama
and Music. Audrey always knew she wanted to be an artist and her undeniable
talent was noticed from an early age. After school, Audrey travelled through
Europe for six years, painting and sketching. She also spent some time in Sri
Lanka designing and making batiks, but it was while she was spending time in
Paris that she was inspired to sculpt and then to combine the mediums of
painting and sculpture. Audrey's unique design of the "pod people"
reached a selective audience and has since created a strong following. Audrey's
portfolio consists out of a violinist, flutist and several ethnic women - the
Masai, Zulu, Xhosa and Ndebele. This unique piece of art is created from resin
and wood, and flows into a palm pod to round off this very elegant looking
sculpture.
Exhibition runs through Saturday, 17 November at 2p.m.
