BIOGRAPHY
Anico Mostert is a multi-disciplinary artist and printmaker from Cape Town. She Graduated from Michaelis School of Fine Art at the University of Cape Town in 2017, where she majored in printmaking. Since then her work has featured in a number of group exhibitions. Anico Mostert currently lives and works from her home studio in Cape Town.
Anico Mostert’s most recent work speaks to the quiet moments of the everyday. She allows her practice to be intuitive and exist as a process of learning and discovery, creating the space for vivid colours and coltish figures to find their place in paintings and prints. Anico uses reference images from social media to imagine still lifes of ordinary scenes, observing the elements of the medium for the artwork to determine itself. Each piece’s name occurs as Anico imagines what it would say if it could speak.
