Meet Andrea.

Textile artist

Amsterdam

Born in Johannesburg and now based in Amsterdam, Andrea has carved a niche for herself in the world of arts. An accomplished production designer, crafter and theatre-maker, she also excels as a performance artist, textile artist and writer.

Educationally, Andrea boasts a BA in Performing and Visual Arts from the University of Witwatersrand, which she received in 2015. This foundation was further solidified in 2022 when she earned her MA in Performance Practices from ArtEZ University of the Arts in Arnhem, Netherlands.

Central to Andrea's work is her keen interest in textile design. She integrates this passion with insights into durational performance and a thoughtful exploration of labour and women's roles in domestic crafts. Through her work, Andrea offers a fresh perspective on traditional concepts, blending them with contemporary thought and technique.
