Artist Brett Murray discusses his solo show at Everard Read Johannesburg.
"Where political satire has long been Murray’s primary preoccupation, in 'Hide' he turns his attention inward. Poking fun at South Africa’s imperfect transition to democracy has proved more tragic than comic a pastime, a dangerous game with few rewards. There are no easy jokes in the nation’s body politic. The artist withdraws to the intimacy of his home, to the comforts of family life." - Lucienne Bestall (July 2020)
