Ingrid Mwangi: "A woman in Purdah"
Ingrid Mwangi (born in Nairobi, lives in Paris) will premier a new performance at the Edith Russ Site for Media Art. Her work integrates personal experience and reactions based on racist positions: how strangers are viewed, how ‘others’ are dealt with and especially the gaze toward foreign, exotic women.
Ingrid Mwangi studied New Artistic Media with Prof. Ulrike Rosenbach in Saarbrücken. Mwangi has been awarded many prizes and stipends since she began exhibiting her work in 1997.
