Anji Woodley is an emerging mixed-media contemporary artist from South Africa, currently based in Toronto, Canada. Her work is a reflection of her deep connection with nature and her roots, which she expresses through the use of natural materials and textures. 

In her latest body of work titled Teacups and Tafel, Anji explores the intersection of cultural symbolism and natural elements through the medium of mixed media on paper. Tafel meaning table in Afrikaans and of Dutch origin, serves as a foundational motif, representing the shared experiences and traditions of South African culture particularly the ritual of tea drinking. 

In this new series, Anji invite viewers to delve deeper into the world created in Teacups and Tafel. By zooming in on specific details and scenes from her previous body of work, she highlights the intricate textures and emotions embedded within each moment. This collection introduces new elements, including unique vessels that enhance the narrative, alongside a singular human form in dynamic movement, suggesting a story of connection and exploration.

A distinctive aspect of this series is the use of handmade black ink, crafted from foraged willow bark. This process involves a meticulous technique of burning, grinding, and mixing the bark into a rich, inky consistency, allowing the natural elements of the material to resonate throughout the work. Each piece reflects a fusion of nature and artistry, creating an intimate dialogue between the viewer and the layers of texture, form, and movement.
