Khanyisa Agnes Brancon is a South African artist hailing from Polokwane, Limpopo and educated at the University of the Witwatersrand with a BAFA. Her artistic practice uses photography, printmaking and installation as mediums of expression. Brancon’s practice is an nterdisciplinary approach of textiles as vessels to honour the use of materiality in her work.

Her practice is an excavation of time, unravelling timelines of past and present indigenous histories. A moment of reclamation, her work creates narratives that hold space for memory, never forgetting what was. Grand themes of colonial erasure, maternal lineage and indigenous knowledge systems are addressed throughout her work with the focus on her Xitsonga culture and its femininity expressed through the Xibelani.
