Brankica Žilović – « Séisme » | Galerie Oniris, Rennes

With “Séisme”, her first solo exhibition at the Oniris Gallery in Rennes, the Franco-Serbian artist Brankica Žilović explores the connections between memory, territory, identity, and transmission. Through an artistic practice that blends textiles, embroidery, and hybrid materials such as concrete and paper, she examines geographical, political, and personal boundaries, as well as the notions of the individual and the collective.

By reinventing traditional tapestry, Brankica Žilović develops a unique visual language at the intersection of drawing, cartography, and textile sculpture. Threads, stitches, and assemblages become traces of memory, scars, and links between personal and collective histories.

Blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary experimentation, her works form a sensitive cartography of a world in constant transformation. Textiles become a living territory, carrying stories, journeys, and traditions.

On view from April 26 to June 7, 2025, at the Oniris Gallery in Rennes, the exhibition “ “Séisme” invites visitors to discover contemporary art in which material becomes memory and each creation explores what connects us, what shapes us, and what endures.
