Throes ,1981/1982

Exhibited :
Literature : Maralize van Zyl (ed.), Nel Erasmus, SMAC Art Publishing, Stellenbosch, 2011, page 108, illustrated in colour (image inverted)
Notes : Throes (1982) again suggests some kind of internal chaos or excess. The quick, brightly coloured lines of this portrait reveal, after some scrutiny, a mouth, a nose, what may be eyes; a person (who may be male or female) crashing on waves of emotion.
