8 August 2021. this week I explored the work of Wangechi Mutu, and found some deep resonances with my own disposition.
Mutu said,
“An artist … is a healer. First they heal themselves, and then they try bit by bit to heal others.”
(from a video prepared in connection with an exhibit at the Legion of Honor Museum, one of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco.)
