Bianca Treviño (b. Mexico/USA) is a visual artist based in Zürich whose practice explores cycles of transformation, globalization, and ecological fragility. Working across painting, sculpture, installation, and socially engaged projects, her work examines the interconnectivity of natural systems, human consumption, and cultural identity.

​

Her work is rooted in geometry and a constantly evolving palette. Colors shift, layer, and interact—drawing on the vibrancy of her Mexican heritage—embodying light, earth, sky, spirit, and transformation. Through this fluid interplay of form and color, she creates abstract cartographies that reveal the connections between identity, migration, and environment.

​

Treviño’s long-term platform Wild Extinction spans educational booklets, hand-printed textiles, and animal drawings adapted into stained glass concepts for hospitals and schools. Parallel to this, her sculptural practice investigates material cycles: ephemeral land works designed to disappear, and glacier-inspired forms crafted from glass, salt, coal, crystals, wax, and wire.

​

Her socially engaged practice has included international collaborations, such as Alchémia—a soap-making initiative with women near cacao farms in West Africa—and Jumpers for Education, a textile project funding children’s schooling. Educated in Landscape Architecture and Fine Arts (West Virginia University), with additional study of Chinese scroll painting at the Nanjing Art Institute, Treviño’s practice reflects a global journey through China, South America, West Africa, and Switzerland.

​

Ultimately, her work transforms geometry, color, and material into a poetic inquiry of interconnection—between people, places, and the fragile systems we all share—revealing resilience, hybridity, and the ever-shifting balance of the natural and human worlds.
