 | Androetta Bekker
Androetta Bekker, born in 1982 in the Free State, grew up surrounded by South Africa’s rich cultural diversity. Introduced to art by her mother, she embraced creativity early but fully returned to it only after her career in science was disrupted by a traumatic accident, a turning point that shaped her belief in change as a catalyst for growth. Now based in Cape Town, Bekker creates bold, colourful works featuring expressive illustrations and striking surface patterns. Her art explores the complexity of human emotions, capturing the layered, often contradictory feelings people experience simultaneously. Bekker’s debut exhibition was in December 2020. She has since earned recognition, including a Top 40 placement in the 2021 Sanlam Portrait Award and a Silver Award in Camelback Gallery’s international Black and White Art Competition. Her work has appeared in group exhibitions at Artisart, Cahoots, Rust-en-Vrede, Zeitz MOCAA, and internationally in Palma de Mallorca, Kassel, and at the 2024 Positions Berlin Art Fair. Her first solo-exhibition, Gilded Masquerade, opened in early 2026. Internationally, Bekker participates in the Travelling Art Gallery initiative, and in Cape Town, she is represented by The Artists Gallery. |
