“We have used this opportunity during the global pandemic to look within, connect with loved ones and find joy in quiet moments of calm. But we have also sought ways to embrace the promises of the future. It would be rash not to reflect on what has happened to us all, but it must be tempered with forward-looking positivity. The artworks showcased at Spier Light Art 2022 do just that; they ask us to glance back while looking ahead, learning from the past as we stride into the future,” say the curators Jay Pather and Vaughn Sadie.

Pather and Sadie explain that while some of the works offer playful opportunities for fun others grapple with difficult themes such as social histories and our relationship with the planet.
From 18 March to 18 April 2022, Spier Light Art will be accessible to the public and entry is free. Visitors will need to reserve a time slot online to ensure compliance with COVID-19 safety protocols and government restrictions. The best time to visit is at dusk, when you can catch the beautiful sunset and witness the lights being turned on.
