WANGUI MAINA
5:40 Contemporary Tour
Wangui Maina is a multi media artist with a background in Printmaking. Her work examines the idea of identity and humanity as represented through cultural adornments including hair styling and most recently, jewelry.
The artist feels that simple fragments of the way we present ourselves can carry a lot of significance in contemporary culture, therefore she pushes the limits of how much information the viewer needs in order to form their own image of an individual.
