Ep.122 features Tschabalala Self (b.1990 Harlem, USA) lives and works in the New York Tri-State. Self builds a singular style from the syncretic use of both painting and printmaking to explore ideas about the Black body. She constructs depictions of predominantly female bodies using a combination of sewn, printed and painted materials, traversing different artistic and craft traditions. The formal and conceptual aspects of Self’s work seek to expand her critical inquiry into selfhood and human flourishing. Recent solo exhibitions and performances include Le Consortium, Dijon (2022); Performa 2021 Biennial New York City, New York (2021); Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore (2021); ICA, Boston (2020); Hammer Museum, Los Angeles and Frye Art Museum, Seattle (2019).
