Cazlynn Pfeffer: Untitled, 2021
Cazlynn Peffer’s work possesses a quietness that becomes unsettling to the viewer. Her sculptural pieces tell stories of candid moments laden with trauma from experiences of domestic abuse and sexual violation. The ambiguity of Peffer’s work help viewers ponder about issues pertaining gender and sexual based violence in a South African context, without confrontation. The artist’s use and display of materials hold memory, they stand in the place of absent individuals in how they evince specific human activity - usually of an intimate pairing gone wrong.
