Sentinels by Pamela
Benporath
DURBAN HARBOUR,
Ethekwini, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
29°52'0"
S : 31°1'0" E
This body
of work explores the view from my studio, looking out over the 4th largest
harbour in the Southern Hemisphere, operating 365 days of the year, 24 hours a
day, handling over 30 million tons of cargo a year, from about 4500 commercial
vessels per year* - it never sleeps!
Despite
this bustling activity and never ending action in the harbor, it and the city
come across almost docile and silent. The ever-changing weather, light,
atmosphere, clouds, sunrises and sunsets offers a lifetime’s worth of
opportunities for sketching and painting this one subject. I look forward to
seeing how this body of work develops.
