Natasha Norman (b. 1982) has an enduring interest in media culture and technology. Further Fictions, completed for her Masters in Fine Art at UCT, is a meticulous meditation on the appropriation and re-production of visual information through the various reproductive processes of film, photography and print. Her work is a subtle engagement with the serial dynamic of filmic images and the hidden matrices of technological ‘sight.’
Natasha Norman currently tutors Discourse of Art at UCT and is commissioning prints as Manager of Editions for ArtThrob’s print portfolio. She encourages artists from other disciplines to engage in traditional print to continually interrogate print practices. She had her first solo show at the Bell-Roberts Gallery in 2007 and has been on a number of local group exhibitions including ‘This is Not Final’ (2010) at the Michaelis Gallery and Wits Substation, ‘Tretchikoff and Me’ (2010) at Salon 91, ‘Ways of Seeing’ at the Ore Gallery (2010), ‘Contusion’ (2007) at the Irma Stern Museum and the ABSA Atelier award finalists (2008 and 2006). Norman completed her Masters in Fine Art at Michaelis this year (2011) and an Honours in Fine Art in 2005 also at UCT.
