Johannesburg: Opening on Thursday, 2 February at 18h00, Haunt will run until 25 February 2017.

Haunt is a solo exhibition of new paintings by Cape Town-based painter, Jake Aikman. Working intuitively with a limited colour palette, scale and repetition, Aikman’s work captures the liminality of an isolated moment, arrested in time. In this series of new work on canvas and board, Aikman’s characteristic large-scale seascapes are interspersed with works that see the artist navigating new territories through abstraction and texture.

This is Aikman’s fourth solo exhibition with the gallery.
