Goodbye Swiss friends

For the last 3months, artSPACE and theCOLLECTIVE have hosted Celia Sidler, her partner Christoph and their little boy Mito. Celia's an installation artist from Switzerland and is in South Africa till the end of Jan with Prohelvetzia (swizz arts council.) Her work's really very cool and her installations have included a giant cake or candy floss heap in a gallery space, check it out on www.celiasidler.ch
It's really great meeting new people from around the world, they really liked our gallery and spent a lot of time here with us...chilling, drinking European amounts of coffee and skyping with their friends back home. On Monday we had to say goodbye as they make their way across to Cape Town. We're gonna miss having them around and especially little Mito who's the cutest 2year old!



As you can imagine getting this shot was a bit difficult. Not all of us are looking our best but at least most of us are looking at the camera!
Celia's exhibiting at artSPACE currently...go check it out if you have time
