Janet Botes (1984-) is a visual artist inspired by the natural rhythms of the Earth and her quest to learn more about herself, the world, biodiversity, and finding new ways of being. With an intuitive, exploratory approach to art, her work ranges from detailed ink drawings to performative actions and explorations in urban-, gallery- and outdoors spaces. She is interested in the nature and spirit of place just as much as our inter-relationships with these spaces and other organisms.
