On the
6th Day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, a limited-edition print by
Toyin Ojih Odutola. Born in Nigeria in 1985, she creates "black portraiture with ballpoint pen ink" and uses "Skin as geography."
Represented by Jack Shainman Gallery of NYC, her work is in
the home of Kasseem “Swizz Beatz” Dean and Alicia Keys, as well as the
public collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Today's
gift is from a suite of eighteen lithographs by visiting artists at the
Tamarind Institute.
