Studio Shot 1980

With wood and steel sculptures, at work on the exhibition destined for the Goodman Gallery, Johannesburg, "Dogs of War"

Studio Shot 1989

At work on the group of works titled "Voyages" (1989). "These works took the ship – the Ship of Fools, the slave vessel, the ships of the voyages of discovery – as its central theme. On these vessels, groups of figures work hard; rowing, pulling, hoisting, bellowing, going nowhere. These are ships unworthy to sail, rusted, broken, their sides split open. They are full of survivors, both perpetrators and victims, driven crazy by violence, repression ... destined to sail to no new destination ..." (Skotnes 1998, catalogue for the exhibition Thomas and the Bone Yard).
