dc.description.abstract	"Dullstroom Dam" depicts a drained dam, emptied by the owner to restore the structure. Part of his attempt to prevent reeds from taking over, he laid rubber mats at the basin. The repetitive linear patterns of the material in a landscape at dusk, created a sense of an embedded text. Seen this way, the work assumes layered significance - the transcript of labour, and our limited attempts at understanding. A small pool of water has seeped through the mats and reflects light in the otherwise somber landscape.	en
