About the event
Join us to learn more about Amanda and ask her questions about his work!
Growing up in South Africa, Amanda Margaretha developed a desire to understand multiculturalism and people whose heritage holds the histories, languages, and traditions of many ethnicities and geographic influences at once. After traveling throughout the Middle East, she became entranced with spices; collecting and studying their properties, uses, and history. Spice became part of her art, and in 2024, she invented her signature technique-Raison D'être-which suspends spice in resin, capturing color and movement in a frozen state.
An accomplished Ohio-based installation artist, Margaretha holds a BFA from the University of South Africa and has exhibited internationally across South Africa, the Middle East, and the United States.
