LIONEL SMIT
Fragment
Published by Lionel Smit Studio, 2016
138 pages, hardcover with slipcase, includes artist statement and interview with Lionel Smit.
“When I moved from Pretoria to Cape Town (2008), I started painting the Cape Coloured and Malay women. Right away, their mixed heritage became a point of intrigue to me. It’s a culture so unique to Cape Town, but also has a universal quality. The idea behind the paintings is loosely based around that dual identity, which I’ve interpreted as fragmented and broken up.”
