The 2024 Florida Prize exhibition at the Orland Museum of Art introduced your boy, JBarber, to 10 fantastic artists in the state of Florida. We got the People’s Choice Award winner from that show, Njeri Kinuthia, on the Noize today. Her work is centered around her experiences growing up in Kenya and the ways she wrestles with culture, religion and social norms. Njeri talks about her love of drawing, her complex relationship with religion, and the ways her art helps her build a sense of self. We go through the details of some of Njeri’s amazing work in the show including Njeri the Great, Nyumba, and Smothered II. Plus some stories about Njeri being a pastor and throwing shade with fabrics. Listen, subscribe, and share!

Episode 188 topics include:

coming to New York from Kenya

finding freedom in the clothing

wrestling with cultural norms in art

the importance of drawing

female oppression

2024 Florida Prize
