Bianca Bondi's multidisciplinary work activates or elevates mundane objects through the use of chemical reactions, mainly involving sea water. The materials she works with are chosen for their mutation potential or their intrinsic or symbolic properties, always with the aim of encouraging experiences that go beyond the visual and advocating the life of the matter in question. Interconnectivity, transience, and life cycles and death are strong undertones of her work.

Passionate about ecology and occultism, Bianca Bondi combines the two, creating multidisciplinary of a transformative nature in which the aura of the objects is key. Often site-specific, the poetic results are closely connected to the places in which they are to exist.

Bianca Bondi graduated from the École nationale supérieure d'arts de Paris-Cergy in 2012, after studying at the WITS School of Arts in Johannesburg.
