Shanyvandenberg, South African contemporary artist whose aim is to transcend the boundaries of imagination and emotion. She recently showcased her profound talents through her previous exhibition, ‘Gardens of her dreams’ held at the Everard Read Johannesburg.
In her collection , she seamlessly weaves together a rich collection of visual narratives, immortalising the experiences, dreams, and aspirations of diverse women. She dives into the interplay between woman and their harmonious connection with nature. She included elements such as flowers as a representation of love, passion, purity, innocence and death. Shanyvandenberg’s aim with this exhibition was to let gazers interpret the multilayered beauty that lies within womanhood.
Through her visually striking compositions, she helps us rediscover our connection with the earth and help us understand the wisdom that comes with it. With each stroke of her brush, Shanyvanderberg speaks with us, promoting that we look within ourselves and consider our connection with our surroundings. The ‘Dreams of her garden’ exhibition invited attendees to create spaces that will foster to their growth, healing and empowerment.
