Tam Chianta grew up in South Africa and Mauritius. Her imagination was nurtured from a young age by the many artists in her family and she would often help her mother paint ostrich eggs for her stall in the Cape Town Waterfront. She emigrated to the United Kingdom as a teenager and went on to obtain a BA degree in Fine Art and Art History from Goldsmiths.
Tam lives and works in London and her art has appeared in galleries across the capital.
"I stare at the sky and the water, mesmerised by the patterns on the surface and the dancing glints of sunlight. My mind goes quiet and I feel an overwhelming sense of joy. I reconnect with those pure emotions I felt as a child, the endless curiosity and awe of the world around me. Profound experiences of nature help me to reconnect with my elusive inner world."
