Notes
The present lot comes from the collection of the artist and ceramicist Dee Jacobs, who trained under Bill Ainslie at the Johannesburg Art Foundation in 1984. Working across a range of media, including oil, acrylic, watercolour, gouache, ink and charcoal, Jacobs' practice later turned toward abstract sculptural forms, built up through brush-applied handmade Japanese paper. It was within Ainslie's circle that she formed close relationships with fellow artists, including Durant Sihlali.
