What Time Reveals
Santie Cronje
$3,200.00
In What Time Reveals, painting is approached as a process of excavation. Built, obscured, and reworked over time, the surface holds traces of its earlier states — each layer remaining present beneath the final image.
Originally begun in 2024 as Pathways, and revisited in 2025 as This Road We Travelled, the work has undergone a gradual unfolding. Rather than being replaced, earlier marks are absorbed into the painting’s surface, resurfacing in subtle and unexpected ways.
Time becomes an active presence — not something that passes, but something that reveals. Through this process, the painting moves beyond a fixed image of place, holding instead a felt sense of landscape shaped by memory, movement, and return.
