WELCOME

 

Hello and welcome to my page! My name is Davina Bosanquet (b.1981) I am a visual artist with a passion for wildlife and culture.  I have held several solo exhibitions in support of conservation projects in Gabon, Namibia and Brazil. 

And have been lucky enough to have been shortlisted seven times at the Wildlife Artist of the Year, and won my category twice.

I am also interested in the theme of cultural identity and have exhibited widely in galleries, fairs and competitions across the UK and internationally. 

I studied portraiture in London and attended art school in Edinburgh and Bournemouth. I have lived and worked in Dorset, Rio de Janeiro, Cape Town and London.  While living in Cape Town I worked in various townships helping to teach local artists and was involved in setting up an exhibition space in Ikhaya la Langa.
