Extensive new monograph of Norwegian artist Frida Orupabo, known for her powerful and thought-provoking collage work.
Leading Norwegian artist and sociologist Frida Orupabo (1986) gained prominence in the art world for her evocative digital and physical collages. Her work often explores themes of race, gender, identity, family relations, sexuality, violence and the human body. Black bodies, which have been subjected to exploitation throughout history, are often present. Orupabo manipulates images, cutting them out, adding and excluding elements, and then reassembling them, suggesting a phantasmagorical and poignant reworking of representational codes.
This richly illustrated catalogue focuses on newly produced works. Alongside an introduction by curators Yuvinka Medina and Owen Martin, and poems by C. LeClaire, original essays by Portia Malatjie, Nina Cramer and Mai Takawira explore the tensions and positions of Orupabo's work both internationally and within a Nordic context.
