dc.description.abstract	The drawing was presented as port of solo exhibition titled: “Enfolding”, which finds an echo in Gilles Deleuze' (1993) writing on The fold. The ink drawing "Sorrow" developed as an extension of the print work “The thread of all sorrows”, which was compiled from digitally cropped details from Renaissance paintings portraying lamentation. The concepts of both works recognise that the experience of bereavement is universal and have been an expression through history. In "Sorrow" the collated figure is placed in a context of contemporary hospital equipment, linking the experience with the present. On a broader scope the setting of the drawing also links globally with the time of the COVID pandemic. Acrylic and Quinck ink on paper. Format: 50cm x 30 cm In the collection of Pretoria Art Museum.	en
