Entanglements

Acrylic pen on polypropelene paper, wall painting (2019 -)

The Entanglements series of line drawings form a sort of diagram of the philosophical and emotional backdrop to the rest of Gretta Louw's practice. Each drawing in the ongoing series depicts a web of interwoven strands of something that might be cables, tentacles, threads, or vines. Tangled and knotted together the works suggest both ropes that bind and ties that connect us; hopelessly - or hopefully - entangled.
