Magdalene Odundo
Produced for Magdalene Odundo’s first exhibition at Xavier Hufkens, this publication offers an intimate glimpse into the Kenyan-born British artist’s work. At the heart of the presentation is a series of ceramic vessels, a form that has been a cornerstone of Odundo’s practice for nearly five decades. These vessels, refined in shape and rich in dualities, such as inside and outside, fullness and emptiness, and fragility and strength, draw inspiration from an array of ceramic traditions – African, European, Asian, Indigenous American – as well as the human body, which Odundo likewise regards as a vessel. The book includes an introductory essay by curator Edith Devaney.
