Biography
Billie Zangewa (born in 1973 in Blantyre, Malawi) is a Malawian artist who hand sews silk fabrics to create collage tapestries, and who now lives in Johannesburg. Since 2004, her art has been featured in international exhibitions including the Paris Art Fair at the Grand Palais in Paris.
Zangewa's work is autobiographical and centralizes Black femininity and everyday domesticity and motherhood. She calls this "daily feminism". Her artistic approach is indicative of the artist's expressing resistance to the oppression she faces through self-love.
