Bevan de Wet (b. 1985) is a contemporary South African artist and printmaker, and the founder of Eleven Editions in Johannesburg. He works primarily with paper, often working with etching, relief printing, and papermakering, for which he often collaborates with Phumani Archive Mill. His work explores the idea that we, as a species, are becoming increasingly alienated from the natural environment and the spaces that we inhabit. Through paper-based works, he explores the breakdown of our ancestral values and the framgmented nature of our engagement with the world. He brings attention to the tensions between our built environment and the organic world. By working with paper, de Wet engages its materiality and pushes the boundaries of the surface.
