‘Material City’: Brett Charles Seiler chats to Sandile Radebe
Brett Charles Seiler
“SR: Yes, the wall installation by Amber-Jade Geldenhuys is comprised of metal angles constructed with bolts with a gap in the centre. The work signifies controlled access to secured spaces. It is encouraged by the audience to continue to build the work without instruction thus making the audience responsible for the interpretation and assemblage of the work. It becomes a playful and functional work in the show reflecting on construction, access and repetition.
BS: Especially since there is a hole in the structure – it seems as though we are able to walk through it and interact with it but with hesitation.
SR: Yes, which bring the issue of accessiblity and whether or not someone is able to enter or not”
