EXPERIENCE
Artist CV
Thelma van Rensburg
April 2009
I was born in Pretoria, South-Africa in 1969. I have studied and traveled extensively over seas and locally. I always had an interest in art, but did not pursue it as a career until 2000. You can say I was a late bloomer. I have a B.A Hons. Degree in Physical education and Psychology. In 2004 I decided to study art full time and received my B.Tech/ Honors degree in 2007 and majored in Printmaking and Painting.
My thesis focused on the Postmodern Identity. My interest is in the female form and the ideals that woman are supposed to live up to according to society and the media. My main means of art making are manipulation of images with photoshop. This medium allows for endless possibilities in art making and creating my own fantasm of nonreality.
