Embodiment

Wangui Maina
October 12 - November 23, 2017

The current exhibition for multidisciplinary artist Wangui Maina explores the relationship of the body and how it takes up and moves through space. With a body of work ranging from intricate and tactile drawings of hair to seemingly ritualistic sculptural objects, the artist draws inspiration from adornment practices and the way they alter daily life. Wangui received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Denver in 2012 and her Masters of Fine Arts from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2014. She lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.
