Zandile Makroti
Johannesburg, South Africa
Zandile (Zandi) Makroti is a multidisciplinary artist, curator, and production designer based in Johannesburg, South Africa. Her practice explores mental health, womanhood, identity, memory, and transformation. Working across film, photography, fine art, costume design, and styling, she uses visual storytelling to examine the emotions, experiences, and inner worlds that shape our understanding of ourselves and others.
Drawing from her background in film production and her interest in human behaviour, Zandi explores how personal experiences, relationships, and inherited histories influence our perceptions and sense of self. Through her artistic and curatorial practice, she is interested in creating thoughtful visual experiences that invite reflection, encourage connection, and open conversations about the complexities of life and the many ways we experience the world.
