About Danie
Danie Jacobs was born in Rustenburg in the North Western Province on the 16th of January 1975. He went to school in the North West and matriculated in Fochville in 1993 after which he joined the SANDF. He later specialized in Anthropology in the field of Human Science & Human Psychology for Media & Cultural Studies. He worked on Kagga Kamma Game Reserve where there were a family of Bushmen that were relocated as part of an eco project specifically to fight for the land in the Kalahari which they have received in 1996.
Danie later got involved with relocation projects over parts of South Africa and from there his love for this people. The most of his inspiration came from the Bushmen styles and techniques. One of his last projects were close to Hartbeespoortdam near Brits where he had an exhibition of the SANDSTONE PANELS with REPLICAS of the DRAKENSBERG ROCKART IN KWAZULU NATAL. It was never meant to be for selling but the interest were so great that he later started with ROCK ART SANDSTONE PANELS FOR SALE which were a great success.
