🏿 Women in Art issue, December 2017 —> @elleusa —> “When Toyin Ojih Odutola told her parents she’d be having a solo show at Manhattan’s Whitney Museum this fall, her mother cried. Her father said, “Whitney Houston has a museum?” Says the artist: “That’s what I love about my dad. You need that reality.” In 2012, she made a name for herself using markers and ballpoint pens to draw figures with skin so alive and fluid, it’s been described as resembling a weaving, or a galaxy. Last year, she began a series informed by a fictional narrative: portraits from the collection of an imaginary duo of aristocratic husbands depicting individuals amid markers of luxury and wealth.
