Wangari Mathenge: The Expats Studies: Impressions on Paper
@ Epiphany Center for the Arts
201 S Ashland Ave, Chicago, IL 60607
Opening Friday, May 21st, from 6PM - 9PM
On view through Saturday, July 3rd
Running through July 25 in The Sacristy Gallery, Kenyan-born, Chicago-based artist Wangari Mathenge presents a collection of new drawings. Mathenge paints small groups of individuals in conversational sittings viewed from interesting perspectives, which provides insight into both the subject and circumstance. This intimate series of works on paper sees her father at times in familial settings – reading, draped across chairs or posing with a child. Mathenge’s confident, precise hand adds to the beauty of her portraits, creating images that are both personal and expansive.
