Robyn Hoonhout - The Scream 

15 March - 15 April 2012
 

Photographer, Robyn Hoonhout captures that piercing moment - the release of a scream. In full colour silence.

Nearly 2000 years ago Ovid wrote that ‘Nothing is constant in the whole world’. Intellectually we know this is true, but the feeling, the emotion, the pervasiveness of change in the realization, causes us anxiety as individuals. The scream is a release button for a state of anxiety. The scream takes one to a place that is beyond one’s knowledge, experience and understanding, into a strange and unfamiliar territory. The content of the scream seeks to reflect on life and what lurks beyond, outside the frame and behind the image when one is confronted with the anxieties of the everyday. Following the scream can be relief, frustration, exhilaration, delight, humility, laughter or the indefinable.
