Jeannette Unite (born 20 January 1964) is a South African artist[1] who has mined for her paint box by collecting oxides, metal salts and residues from mines, heritage and industrial sites,[2][3] to develop paint, pastel and glass recipes for her large scale artworks that reflect on the mining and industrial sites where humanity's contemporary world is manufactured.[4][5]

Her industrial-scale mining Headgear drawings and "TERRA" paintings[6][7] were exhibited at Museum Ostwall, Dortmund, Germany[4][8][9][10][11][12] in the reconstructed building on the site of mining headquarters for the Ruhr Valley in commemoration of the final year of underground coal mining in Germany.

Through 2014 and 2015 her research on Earth's stratigraphy with Department of Earth Sciences, Oxford University and Oxford University Museum, developed into a body of work exhibited at the Centre for Contemporary Art and the Natural World (CCANW),[13] Exeter University, Devon, between October 2015 and February 2016. This travelling exhibition also formed part of the United Nations' Year of Soil and the British Geological Society's Year of Mud.[14][15][16][17]

## Research

Unite's works reference mining heritage sourced from archives and museums.[1][2] This includes early geological historical maps and texts that were created during the British Industrial Revolution to guide mining the coal that fueled the engines that drove modernity.[1]

Photographs from Unite's travels and images duplicated from mining museums and archives are as precious a resource to Unite as the site-specific sands and slimes pond tailings from the mines and industrial detritus,[1][5] and are loaded with meaning that she mixes into her paints and pastels.[4]

Unite has exhibited in the German, Beijing, Lyon, and Tashkent International Art Biennales. Her art is represented in art museums spanning five continents, as well as within the halls of the world's largest law firm, Clifford Chance.[4]

## Education and community work[18]

Unite graduated from Michaelis School of Fine Art in 1986, following 4 years of study. From 1987 to 1997 she taught printmaking and general art at Frank Joubert Art Centre, as well as teaching adult education drawing lessons & painting courses. During this time, she spent four years in correspondence with UNISA and provided art training to teachers in Nyanga, a local township area. From 2011-2016 she taught the Workshops in Materiality course at Michaelis School of Fine Art, a series of workshops centered around communicating her own unique style of paint preparation and utilization to students. In 2014 she completed her MFA (Masters in Fine Arts) at Michaelis, receiving a distinction.
