Join us on Thursday 4 June at 17h00 for 17h15 for an Artist Talk on the Stellenbosch Art Mile with acclaimed land artist and sculptor Strijdom van der Merwe, as part of Stellenbosch First Thursdays.

Gather at the Stellenbosch Ou Landbousaal and walk with us to JOURNEY,  Strijdom’s striking bridge installation situated nearby. In this work, the bridge crosses a flowing river, where the water's movement enhances the experience of transition and connection. The work also frames a unique perspective of the Stellenbosch mountains, drawing attention to their contours and presence in the landscape.

Strijdom’s artistic vision merges the river’s movement and the mountain’s forms into a seamless, engaging design that enriches the journey from one side to the other.

During this guided experience, Strijdom will share insight into his creative process, the ideas behind JOURNEY, and how the surrounding natural environment informs his work.
