Episode Sixteen: Toyin Ojih Odutola

Framing The Conversation...
In this episode, Paula Wallace sits with Toyin Ojih Odutola to reflect on her exhibition at the SCAD Museum of Art, "Testing the Name," and on the impact of art in popular culture. Toyin's masterful use of mediums and materials create novels out of a carefully curated collection of drawings as she challenges her audience to "read her pictures." Her work is deep and dynamic with an emphasis on texture that has become a signature of her artwork. Her exhibition was praised by SCAD students who found endless inspiration in her use of ink, pastels, charcoal, and pencil. Tune in and enjoy Toyin's passion for art's power in the twenty-first century.
