About "Caught in Time"
Caught in Time “I picked away the layers of slime to reveal the most beautiful fish I had ever seen,” she recounts. “It was five feet long, a pale, mauvy blue with faint flecks of whitish spots; it had an iridescent silver-blue-green sheen all over. It was covered in hard scales, and it had four limb-like fins and a strange little puppy dog tail. It was such a beautiful fish-more like a big china ornament-but I didn’t know what it was. by Samantha Weinberg
About the Art
The body of work is comprised of oil paintings and photographs. Artworks signed by the name of tartim are a combination of both forms. The excellent uses of colour and compositions have been formed entirely by the artist’s and every artwork is one of kind. When looking at this body of work a few words come to mind. Mystical, Fantasy vs. reality, Beautiful, Inspiring, meaning and Love…..Knysna 9 of the works are completed but more works are in the process of being done. The selected works will most likely be Framed before the exhibition
A common interest emerged; although they both felt stuck in limbo in the small town of Knysna, waiting for the recession easy off, they loved and felt inspired by the people and the place they live in. The people (some are knysna hippies) have a way of escaping from reality, living bare foot and by the tide, but fulling life with happiness. For Artists the recession has brought back the focus to the art itself. If you have talent it will manifest and you will find the support. What truly provides satisfaction is having meaning and purpose in life, which is doubly important in the midst of this current economic nightmare.
Each work is inspired by a local story/legend, a love song or poem.
“Once Upon a time in Knysna”
“Once Upon a time in Knynsa”, has been put together by two young collaborating artists Tarryn Gordon (Fine Art) and Timothy Atkins (photographer). They both met at Ruth Prowse Fine Art College (Cape Town) and decided to do a unique collaboration to bring a new style to the art market.

What truly provides satisfaction is having meaning and purpose in life, which is doubly important in the midst of this current economic nightmare. Timothy recently moved to Knysna and was amazed by what beauty there was around him. Tarryn’s imagination, romantic nature, and interest in local fables combined with the prettiness of Knysna was the perfect idea and setting.
