Fast Play to Somewhere in Africa:
Discovering and Creating Links with Artists from the African Continent

German-Kenyan media artist Ingrid Mwangi presents videos of her work and her collaboration with Kenyan video artists on an art center in Nairobi.

Ingrid Mwangi has achieved international recognition for her performance works and video installations. She trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Saarbrücken. A constant theme of her work is the relationship between violence, memory and identity.

Ingrid Mwangi is one of four prominent international video artists with ties to Africa who are presented in the exhibition Cross Currents in Recent Video Installation: Water as Metaphor for Identity at the Tufts University Art Gallery, February 9 – April 2.
