The Swimmers

By South African photographer & visual artist Carla Liesching

"Liesching uses her swimmers to explore the link between space and identity and how we think of home. The work has grown out of a state of being that is a defining trait of Liesching’s generation: a sense of displacement, an awareness of foreignness and a search for belonging that cannot be tied to one fixed geographical or ideological place." 

These near life-size portraits are part of an ongoing series and will be showing at the iArt Gallery, 71 Loop Street CPT, from this evening through to the 27 April 2011. definitely worth a visit.
