ABOUT THE STUDIO
RABBIT PRODUCTIONS
Rabbit Productions is a print making art space within the artist studio of August House, Doornfontein, Johannesburg. Housed within the oldest continuous artist studio space in Johannesburg, Rabbit Productions mirrors the eclectic mix of art being produced in the building. Fashion designers, music producers painters, sculptors, video artists and ceramicists help keep Fiver's art practice wide open. She loves collaborating with artists and non-artists, offering her space to support local arts practitioners and those who want to find out if print making is for them.
The Joburg art scene has been instrumental in empowering Fiver to set up a studio, become a printmaker and find the courage to put her work out there through exhibitions and collaborations. Without the support of the local art community this would not have been possible. She is keen to return the favour. As a feminist she is particularly keen to support women artists, who traditionally have a harder time finding a place to work that allows them to expand their horizons to make bigger, freer and more elaborate work.
Having a spacious studio has allowed her to think bigger, too. Her work has gone from straightforward printmaking (see This is Syrious works) to complex mixed media monotype works, like the series about the menopause called A Dangerous Age (see A Dangerous Age works).
fiver is currently working on a solo show relating to the legacy of empire and her position in the world as a White European.
