Edmunds employs various media to reveal layered visions con-cerned with his identity living in post-apartheid South Africa, ‘My work is characterised by an unconventional use of materials and cumulative processes as well as an ongoing exploration of pattern. On the cusp between abstraction and representation, my work seems more concerned with process’.
