Neo Matloga: Tomorrow is Another Day
STEVENSON is pleased to present Tomorrow is Another Day, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Neo Matloga.
For his first exhibition in Johannesburg since 2020, Matloga presents a tableau of figures in quiet moments witnessed in moments of daily life between Johannesburg and Mamaila, the village where he grew up. The artist describes his paintings as 'psychological landscapes' where the range of emotions comprising the everyday are captured on a spectrum, ranging from love to exasperation and reverence. Where Matloga's first exhibition, Back of the Moon, referenced scenes from local soap operas, plays and family albums, Tomorrow is Another Day relinquishes theatricality, emphasising stillness and familiarity alongside the equal measures of presence and dignity these evince.
