✨ What a weekend! ✨

De Rust Open Studios 2025 het ons dorp gevul met kleur, geselskap en kreatiwiteit. 🎨
Van oop ateljees en die Vierkant-uitstalling tot wyn, musiek, perde, joga en film – elke oomblik het getuig van die talent en die gees van ons gemeenskap.

Baie dankie aan almal wat gekom het, gedeel het en saam met ons hierdie besonderse naweek moontlik gemaak het. 💫

Tot volgende keer! 🌿

🖌️ Brahm van Zyl – Landscapes of Memory

Born in Namibia, Brahm van Zyl has made the landscapes of the Karoo his lifelong canvas. From weathered drifts of Meiringspoort to the quiet decay of manmade structures, his paintings are a study of memory, time, and resilience.

📍 Step into Brahm’s studio during De Rust Open Studios and join us at the official opening at Die Ateljee (Brahm & Juria’s studio) on Friday 26 Sept at 18:00.

Colourful, playful, yet deeply serious – Juria le Roux’s paintings investigate the transience of life and the influence of the Anthropocene. Rooted in the Karoo, her work holds atmosphere, memory, and texture, inviting viewers to pause and reflect.

📍 Visit Juria’s studio during De Rust Open Studios and don’t miss her contribution to Vierkant, the special group exhibition at Pluim Eatery.
