Meeting Nzuji for the first time is quite the fun experience. She is warm, very friendly and is eager & excited to speak about her work. I caught up with her at her show at LA Artcore Brewery where she has a few paintings and a video installation on view now. But I fell in love with her work at the Made in LA show at the Hammer last year.
Nzuji is from Angola and is a painter, sculptor and composer. She recently won the commission of doing a permanent public art install at the soon to open Bundy train stop on the Expo metro line!
