'In a sense, making art is Mutu’s way of communicating — for her, it’s a form of meditation and prayer, a way to integrate her empathy into the earth and “pass that love, sorrow, pain and urgency on to other people,” she says.' – Shirley Ngozi Nwangwa
Shirley Ngozi Nwangwa for The New York Times reports on Wangechi Mutu's sculpture works currently installed at Storm King Art Center.
