Jan Vermeiren
Jan Vermeiren (born 1949 in Belgium) lives and works in South Africa as a painter (oil and mural painting) and printmaker (lithography and etching). He is an artist whose work bridges two rich and vastly different cultures. On the one hand, there is his European heritage, on the other, the profound influence of Africa, which is now his home. This duality brings an exciting and unusual dimension to his work. His images reveal a series of archetypal symbols derived from various ancient cultures, reflecting his belief that it is these 'primitive' symbols that unite man across time and different civilizations. His aim is to bring the viewer into the spirit of Africa, to encourage a better understanding of the African identity.
