Bambou Gili (b. 1996) lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. Her work explores social maladaptation, solitude, humour, resistentialism, racial prejudice, enantiodromia and uncertainty in places of comfort. Using a range of contemporary and historical sources, including animation and 16th and 18th century portraiture, Gili’s work combines various painting styles, colours and figures to create personal, found and imagined landscapes.
