Joanne Webb was born in 1973 and grew up in Portsmouth. In the early 90s Joanne moved to Brighton and studied a BA in Fine Art. In 1995 she was accepted into the Royal Academy of Arts, London. On her final year at the RA she won the Landseer Travel Prize, leaving London behind for Montana. She would stay there for 13 months travelling to and fro from the Lakota Sioux Fort Peck Indian Tribal Reservation and Billings.
A lifelong interest in anthropology and the transformation of the human spirit has created imaginative works over the years. The art and creative awareness of early and modern day shamanic culture, alternative states of consciousness, cosmic journeying, dreaming and Buddhism are also an influence. Joanne's most recent body of work depict seamless repeat patterns as the art forms. See website: For more information.
