Artist
Bianca Bondi (Jhb, South Africa, 1986) lives and works in Paris. Her multidisciplinary practice involves activating or elevating or elevation of mundane objects through the use of chemical reactions, and is often the site in which she works. The materials she works with are chosen for their potential for transformation or their intrinsic properties, underlining the interconnectedness of things in the world their transience, and reveal the cycles of life and death. Her works have been exhibited at Lafayette Anticipations (2023), the Fondation Louis Vuitton (2021), Fondation Carmignac (2021); Casino Luxembourg (2020); Pera Museum (2020) and as part of the Biennales de Lyon 2019, Busan 2020, and Thailand 2021.
