ARTISTS' RESIDENCIES #12 | Bianca Bondi, artist & artisan (2/3)

In 2023, Holding Textile Hermès in Pierre-Bénite, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, hosts South African artist Bianca Bondi for her residency. Born in 1986 in Johannesburg, she studied at the Wits School of Arts in her home city before continuing her training at the École Nationale Supérieure d’Arts de Paris-Cergy. Her constantly evolving pieces centre on her materials’ capacity for metamorphosis, which she carefully manages and stages to offer a reflection upon environmental issues.
