About Jenny
Born 1969 in Pmb, KZN. Obtained Diploma in Fine Art [1992] from Technikon Natal and currently work as a fulltime sculptor. Winner of Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition, Durban Botanic Gardens, 1998. 2012 Receive an ART and ENVIRONMENT honorary award for the work I have done in the past 20 years, developing our community of KZN. ( The award is given by the Youth Development and KZN office of the premier) This is a special award to those of us that are a wee bit older than "youth" .Its for my bee work ,marine conservation work and art workshops/education. Exhibited extensively in SA & abroad. Presented numerous sculpture workshops in SA & abroad, concentrating on community projects. My sculptures are represented in public and private collections in SA & abroad. My work speaks about my close relationship to the natural environment and the many species that share our fragile planet. I work exclusively with botanic materials since cycles inform my creative process: Nature's cycles and life cycles. My sculptures are a part of and mirror these cycles. I'm also intrigued by the tension that exists in the relationship between science and nature, and science and art, and I attempt to reflect this tension in my work.
