Black line
Solo exhibition by Billie Zangewa
|
| 29 October – 27 November
|

Afronova, Friday 29 October, 18:00 to 20:00 followed by The Artists Dinner at Narina Trogon.
Billie Zangewa’s new series of silk tapestries inspired by her life experiences radiates sensuality and power. With works like The Rebirth of the Black Venus or Desarming Mars, Billie comes out even more aware as a triumphant African woman, conscious of her roots and fully in touch with her environment. Her intimate universes meet the public realm in daring and original silk tapestries with strong narratives and presence.
Recent international exhibitions in Europe, The United States and Japan as well as acquisitions by major collections further establish Billie Zangewa as one of the most desirable and sought-after contemporary artist.
Exhibition runs until Saturday 27 November.
