The artist Jeanne Hoffman works in the media of drawing, sculpture and installation.

She has taken part in a number of exhibitions in South Africa and abroad. She has participated in artist-in-residency programmes in Finland, Belgium and the Netherlands, most notably the Saari Mansion Residency (Finland) and the European Ceramic Work Centre (EKWC) in the Netherlands.

Her approach to the picture plane is navigated by the idea that to draw is to travel. Her paintings, drawings and ceramic objects become dwelling points for reflection, what she calls ‘temporary shelters for thoughts.’
