Listen to artist Stephen Hobbs tell the story of his long journey from South Africa to Ireland and back which led to the creation of his Shallow Sleep exhibition. In this episode, Hobbs takes Melissa Waters through his Shallow Sleep installation at his Maboneng studio. This episode was recorded at the installation site itself!
Shallow Sleep at his studio in Maboneng, listed as part of the Johannesburg Art Fair Open City Programme, immerses the audience in a series of situations expressed through a large-scale painting installation, combined with found objects, video and archival references to ‘a short life’ in Ireland.
