ABOUT THE ARTWORK
I painted this Contact series during 2020. Deeply moved by the isolation and yearning for contact which we all, but especially older people felt - and seeing this in my elderly mother, whom I also lost this year - I felt the need to paint these essential intimacies. A word, a whisper, a hand held, a child's warm touch. The diminutive size of these works befit the smallest of affections which has the power to transform and bestow hope. I was very much moved while painting these and have found the same reaction in those who saw or bought them. They are little seeds of hope.

Inge Du Plessis
United Kingdom
I am a figurative oil painter with work in collections throughout South Africa as well as in Chile, Germany and the United Kingdom. I am originally from Cape Town, South Africa - where I Completed a Fine Art Honours Degree and have been painting professionally since 1999 after many years working as a cabinet maker, running my own design and manufacturing business. After three successful solo shows and regular participation in group shows, competitions and art events, I moved to the United Kingdom with My family in 2009. I have taken part in various group shows in Berkshire while creating a body of work for my first solo show in England. In 2016 I was chosen to participate in Sky Portrait Artist of the Year, which aired in spring 2017 on Sky Arts. I entered again in 2019 and went quite a bit further than the first heat - this will air in 2020 on Sky and Channel 4. I continue to exhibit in Open Studio/Arts Trail events and groups, and although these events are wonderful in terms of local exposure and a valuable and encouraging way to engage with the public about my painting, I am hoping to be accepted into an appropriate gallery with a wider audience.
