"The world is our expansive canvas; as we traverse through life, all it requires is a shift in perspective from above." This profound ethos defines the artistic philosophy of Werner Bronkhorst, a South African artist who now draws inspiration from the Australian coastline. Self-taught and possessing remarkable skill, Werner's canvases transcend mere artistry—they narrate a tale of symbiosis between materials and hues, weaving together the realms of surfing and skiing. His dynamic microcosms, often infused with a sporting spirit, emerge from the fusion of robust materials, transforming into lively stage settings within natural landscapes, where diminutive protagonists thrive. These compositions speak volumes about the intricate interplay of size, color, and the raw essence of nature, reflecting Werner's unique artistic prowess.
