From Nairobi to New York: Advancing Afrofuturism with Wangechi Mutu | Brilliant Ideas Ep. 21

Wangechi Mutu, an artist from Nairobi, Kenya, says that, to her, making something is devising something new that is opposite to destruction. Through various artworks such as vivid-colored collages, films, and installations, Mutu casts a question and answers about countless issues in Africa. Mistaken views on women, more specifically, African women is a subject that the artist mostly focuses on. She thinks that there is no other thing subjected to both desire and contempt than a female body. It might be the reason that her works are visually glamorous and beautiful, while giving a little sad feeling. The 21th episode of Brilliant Ideas presented by Bloomberg and Hyundai Motor features Wangechi Mutu, who hopes that people who see her works can escape from a mundane life for a moment to think about what it means to live as a human being.
