Jeremy Wafer

Levels, 1992

Wafer’s practice, as noted by critic Sean O’Toole, is “striking in its responsiveness to the particularities of South Africa’s land.” Across four decades, his work has employed topographic and oceanic references to engage with the geological and sociohistorical realities of place. Through conceptual sculptures and site-specific installations, Wafer explores the landscape and sea as containers of memory, desire, and vulnerability.
