Bianca Brandolino ( They / She / He in that order) is a multidisciplinary artist and designer from Milwaukee, WI. In 2015, Bianca received two Bachelors of Arts degrees in Painting and Drawing, and Design and Visual Communications from Peck School of the Arts at the University of Wisconsin- Milwaukee, along with a Fine Arts Minor in Art History.
The majority of their creative work is derived from their own human experiences; acting as an invitation to discuss fat acceptance, mental illness, healing from trauma, gender identity, and finding the silver linings that keeps one going on the daily. They carve the human form with paint and stitch materials together to encompass their own ritualistic attempts at healing themself, and invite others to view those self-reflective aspects in their work.
Refusing to limit themself to one medium- they explore many forms of creation but find that quilting, use of fabric, and narrative zine story telling have been continuous creative threads that they’ve followed. You may find them slinging their handstitched zines on either side of the country, covered in watercolor paints.
