Olujimi's recent transcendent watercolor and ink paintings, sculpture, murals and film works imagine the liberatory possibilities of boundlessness
Born and raised in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, conceptual artist Kambui Olujimi (born 1976) works across installation, sculpture, painting, video and film to explore the liberatory possibilities of boundlessness. Through an exploration of weightlessness, Olujimi contests the fixed and singular ideas of Blackness as ascribed within persisting colonial imaginations. North Star brings together over five years of Olujimi's artwork, including large-scale watercolor paintings, video installation, ceramic sculpture, a short film and excerpts from a two-day symposium commissioned by Lincoln Center for Performing Arts. Presented in this full color monograph, these works collectively imagine what new relationships we might chart between our bodies, the self and the universe, once deeply entrenched forces are replaced by boundlessness and possibility. This book was made possible through the generous support of the Mellon Foundation.
