André Rose
Exhibition:
2017 Phatshoane Henney New Breed Winners Group Exhibition
Details:
Signed
Digital print on cold press 100% cotton paper
600 mm x 330 mm
Description:
A group of workers, maybe gardeners and a domestic worker, are captured walking their owners’ dogs in an affluent Johannesburg suburb.
They are engaged in banter as the dogs frolic in the park in the winter morning sun. The viewer is drawn into the scene and allowed to eavesdrop on the conversation. The gossip aroundthe workers’ employers, the weather, the political milieu of the country and tips on how to handle the dogs are exchanged.
The bizarre scene of entitled owners not walking their own dogs transposes the view to a yesteryear era of colonial dispensation and privilege. The viewer is left to contemplate who the dogs belong to. Whose children are they anyway?
