Born and raised in the Netherlands, Dewi Plass (1990) is a self-taught artist with an academic background in cultural anthropology. While Dewi found great joy in putting her academic skills into practice, it was her profound fascination for nature and the love for the animals that inhabit it that made her develop a visual language through which this passion could be communicated and celebrated. In 2015 she decided to commit to her development as a visual artist, and since then her artwork has been shown in galleries across the world. Using acrylics as her medium, Dewi creates artworks in which animals take the center stage within worlds that invite the viewer to let go of all that’s familiar and instead explore the unexpected.
