Sobre el Artista

Jane Zimmermann is an artist and illustrator based in Tromsø, Norway. 
She loves exploring nature and it`s wonderful small and large worlds 
within it through her ecological science and fiction art.  

Her art explores ecological themes such as loss of biodiversity, 
with a focus on the often-overlooked small worlds that play vital roles 
in our ecological cycles. In her detailed work on botanical, entomological, ornithological and ecological art, she loves both the affective and scientific exploration of nature. Each painting process becomes an immersive experience 
of learning and interaction, sometimes weaving in a fictional touch that 
enriches the narrative.

She usually works with watercolour and graphite, but also likes to explore ink techniques, eco-plant-printing and other creative processes. A key part of her process is to create pigments from all sorts of plants and stones to enhance the viewer’s connection with nature and the narrative behind each artwork.

She is regularly featured in international exhibitions and sells her original paintings in international galleries and also has ongoing collaborations at the intersections of science and art with researchers across the natural and health sciences, as well as the humanities.
