Armed with a Michaelis education, Durban-born artist Wentzel went on to learn printmaking techniques while serving an apprenticeship under master printmaker Zhané Warren. Working in the beachside town of Umdloti, KwaZulu-Natal, she draws inspiration from the grit and quirk of her surrounds. “The Botanic Gardens”, Wentzel’s recent exhibition, was her fourth solo with Kalashnikovv Gallery.
