Claudia Shneider

Proposal:

I propose to make an installative sculpture on the Joburg Fringe, I am working on a concept. At this stage it is a work in progress and has a working title Platforming the Engage Practice. I will also exhibit a series of drawings. I hope to update the text here accordingly, once the work is done.
