Pippa Hetherington - Inheritance

About

Bonne Espérance Gallery presents the first exhibit in France of South African artist Pippa Hetherington - Inheritance. The exhibit is deeply personal and explores her own family history, but in doing so, explores South Africa’s complex and often traumatic national history. Pippa’s point of departure is photography but she then goes in surprising directions, using unexpected techniques and materials. Working with photography, textiles and rock pigment, the artist explores post-colonial identity, fragments of separated histories and memory.
