Kay Fourie completed her BA FA Honors at the University of the Free State in 1987 with a distinction in Sculpture. For the past 33 years she has been living on a sheep farm near a very small village called Philipstown. The landscape and its relationship with humankind has been a deep well of inspiration and a research topic. Printing is a very important aspect of her art making especially lino print, monoprint and etching.
In 2019 she was awarded a prize at the Phatshoane/Henney New Breed Art Competition.
