Wangechi Mutu

Wangechi Mutu "The Naughty Fruits of My Evil Labor", 2005, Ink, acrylic, collage, contact paper, packing tape on mylar,
80 1/2" x 42 1/2"

Wangechi Mutu, born 1972 in Nairobi, Kenya, lives and works in New York, USA. She works with cut outs of lifestyle and porno magazines, packing tape, glitter, ink, etc.. Material that she composes to collages. Wangechi Mutu unveils and magnifies the misconceptions used to define African people, particularly women, who were depicted as malformed, hyper-sexual or un-evolved. The creatures she creates sometimes look bizarre or fantastical, sometimes scary and mysterious.

Right now until December 7th 2008 you can see a great exhibition of the artists at Kunsthalle Wien, project space at Karlsplatz.
