Viviane Herzog
Space, Cape Town, installation view, 2023
Having always been challenged by the complexity of relationships in her life, Viviane Herzog made this topic her artistic focus. Gaining a lot of insight into human nature in her earlier career as a writer and editor focusing on individuals and their life stories, Herzog turned that knowledge into making art on relational topics during her studies of Art Conveyance (Kunstvermittlung) in Basel Switzerland since 2021. Her paintings and installations using both paper and textiles highlight the value and beauty that lie in the ambiguity of life and offer comfort and hope to the recipient. She took part in several Group Shows in different Galleries in Cape Town, South Africa, in 2023. Her upcoming first solo show in Basel will combine installation, participatory art
and paintings in with her fondness for printmaking.
