Monilola Olayemi Ilupeju: BloodLetter

In the organizer's words:

From December 6 to March 2, the artist will be showing her latest paintings at the Kestner Gesellschaft, inspired by photographs from her personal and family archive.

In "BloodLetter", Monilola Olayemi Ilupeju is showing her latest paintings on leather and sculptures made of lime wood, inspired by photographs from her personal and family archive. "BloodLetter" is the Nigerian-American artist's first institutional solo exhibition. At its center is the artist's book of the same name, a work hand-bound in leather by Ilupeju and published especially for the show at the Kestner Gesellschaft. This book forms the conceptual core of the exhibition and embodies central motifs that characterize the artist's practice: Origin, memory, mourning, healing and the complex connection between individual and collective narratives.
