Vanessa Billy

Vanessa Billy is concerned with intrinsic and transformative properties of materials, with the materialisation of processes of constant exchange within our environment and between humans and other living beings. The artist uses a wide range of organic and synthetic materials and waste products, including bronze, bio-resin, or waste oil; as well as industrial objects such as electric cables, car engines and light bulbs. Thematically, Billy's sculptural practice explores ecological issues, energy cycles, dystopian visions and alchemical processes. She draws parallels between physical and mental constructs and questions the impact of human activity on the planet. von Baier, Simon und Kunz, Nicole und Landecker, Hannah und Lunn, Felicity
