Agnes Waruguru is interested in everyday materials, especially those associated with the home and daily routines. Her practice is a weaving of slow meditative processes and quick reactive moments, at once formal and abstract, drawing together process and craft. Many of her works reference women’s practices, traditional cultural identifiers, and personal identity politics as modes to engage with memory, place, and expanding notions of home, moving between her birth country of Kenya and her adopted homes. She draws from personal experience to create new landscapes, which can often be memory or emotionscapes that invite the viewer to look slowly, imagine, and speculate. Waruguru received a BFA from the Savannah College of Art and Design. Her work has been exhibited across the globe, and she has participated in residencies including the Saba Artist Residency in Lamu, Kenya, and the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam. In 2024, an installation by the artist was included in “Foreigners Everywhere,” the main exhibition of the 69th Venice Biennale, curated by Adriano Pedrosa. Submitted by Circle Art Gallery
