Strength, Shaped by Water
A 76 year old painter and surfer, and a friend, stands in a moment shaped by decades of returning to the sea. A quiet study of a woman’s strength: self‑forged, enduring, and entirely her own.
About Artist
Lollo Virey Wollheim
French born, Italian grown. Cape Town is where my heart landed. Adventure seeker, madly in love with the Ocean, where I spend most of my time surfing my single fin old school longboard . Something very old and very powerful connects all living things: it is right in front of us and we hardly ever notice it. Trying to capture it through my lens is what drives me , after nearly 20 years or so I have decided to start taking photos again , a passion I thought had been left behind . The loss of my father 10 years ago left me with a thirst to communicate my feelings through what I see everyday while living in Cape Town and always seeking new places to explore and capture . I am not a trained photographer , I have been very lucky to have grown up surrounded by photo reporters ( Nino Leto ) ,Fashion Photographers ( Adalberto Guarnerio and Carlo Miari Fulcis ) , and I guess some of their experiences rubbed off on me while growing up . 54 years young and loving life .
