Q & A with Jane Wena
We asked Jane to share a little bit about herself and her life as an artist.
Here's what she had to say.
Here's what she had to say.
Does your art reflect your life at all?Yes, absolutely. This piece is very personal to me. My father's death was blamed on sorcery and his family were persecuted for it. My uncle was tortured and killed and his family were not able to mourn for him. Usually it's women who are the victims. We had two burials.
|
What has been the highlight of your life as an artist to date?In 2000 I received an invitation from the government of Brueni to participate in the APEC Young Artists program. PNG did not attend that year so I went by myself. Before we attended, we created pieces for an exhibition for the world leader. I was one of only 5 artists who had the opportunity to meet American President Bill Clinton. My piece was a painting of our parliament house called "House of a Thousand Tribes" that later became a part of the Sultan's Royal Regalia Museum.

What other subject matter inspires your art?Our mothers & women in general are champions of their families, villages and communities.
