The other day I went to an art exhibition at the Turbine Hall in town. I saw some really nice pieces of art there and some of them I would of really liked to have taken home with me, especially this one painting of a swimming pool by an artist named Swain Hoogervorst. I really like his work, it reminds me of being a kid and coming home after school for a swim and a white bread and polony sandwich.
– Swain Hoogervorst has been painting full-time since 2012. He has exhibited on various group shows, locally and abroad, and held his first solo exhibition at the AVA gallery in Cape Town in May 2014. Hoogervorst was a collaborator with Andrew Putter in the 2010 Sketch Assembly, and was selected to show on the 2013 Absa Atelier exhibition in Johannesburg. Hoogervorst currently lives in Cape Town, where he works from Eastside Studios.
