BIOGRAPHY

Grietjie Lee was born in Mokopane, South Africa in 1966. Lee is a Rosendal based conceptual artist works with multiple mediums including paintings, land art, photography and electronic media. Lee finds her inspiration in all aspects of the human existence, and the natural rhythm and design of nature. Each exhibition consists of multiple works, often in a range of different media, grouped around specific themes and meanings. During research and production, new areas of interest arise and lead to the next body of work. Lee completed a National Diploma in fine arts at the TUT University of Pretoria in 1987. She has participated in many group exhibitions over the years and had her first solo exhibition “ Murg en Been” at the Long Street Art Lovers Gallery in November 2015.
