WATER DIXON
Water Dixon are an artist duo who collaborate on mirror and light-based installation sculptures which create subtly complex perceptual effects. Their work creates questions around the themes of time, identity, and spirit. In many of their installations, a phenomenological experience of architectural space takes place, provoking the viewer into an internal dialogue between mind and body. They hope these questions create an embodied learning of self and soul in viewers.
After the success of a collaborative outdoor light installation at Spier Wine Estate at the end of 2018, Wendy and Caitlin formed their studio. The duo creates perceptual questions around the themes of time, identity and spirit. They hope these questions create an embodied learning of self and soul in viewers.

WENDY DIXON
(b. 1990 Johannesburg, South Africa)
Wendy is a creative director, designer, and artist. Her work straddles between design and art, blending light, mirror sculptures and installations into immersive experiences. Her professional background in design allows her to bridge rich graphic narratives with rigorous spatial design.
