Billie Zangewa was invited to contribute to the exhibition Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams, where she presented a hand-stitched silk collage created especially for the show. Her artwork portrays Monsieur Dior working with fabric, drawing a poetic connection between the craftsmanship of couture and her own practice. Through this piece, Zangewa brings her distinct visual language into dialogue with the legacy of Dior, while continuing to explore themes of identity, labour, and the intimate beauty of everyday life.
