By filming this process, it became a way of mapping and holding onto the glimpses one sees when passing through the city.<br \/>\nAlongside the bus journey, Gabie presents two parallel films, a train journey across Siberia and a sea passage to Antarctica. By presenting the three journeys together, in the Quadrant Shopping Centre on the approach to the bus station, he creates a metaphorical starting point for the journey of the imagination, as well as a real launch pad for many Swansea adventures.<br \/>\nNeville Gabie was born in Johannesburg, South Africa and now lives and works in Stroud, UK.<br \/>\nHe completed his MA in sculpture at the Royal College of Art in 1988. He has undertaken a number of international residences, and has curated and organised off-site projects in the UK. His work has been shown extensively internationally and nationally.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/artworks\/gabie\/gabie11.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/artworks\/gabie\/gabie12.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/artworks\/gabie\/gabie22.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Land and Sea<br \/>\nQuadrant Shopping Centre \/ Bus Station<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12995,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_vp_format_video_url":"","_vp_image_focal_point":[],"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[412],"portfolio_tag":[],"class_list":["post-6778","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-artists"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/6778","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6778"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/6778\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12997,"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/6778\/revisions\/12997"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/12995"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6778"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fportfolio_category&post=6778"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fportfolio_tag&post=6778"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
