Artist Tschabalala Self talks about her artwork Lite and how she made it. Lite is part of the Institute of Contemporary Art's permanent collection and is featured in the exhibition Tschabalala Self: Out of Body, on view January 20 – July 5, 2020. Tschabalala Self creates large-scale figurative paintings that integrate hand-printed and found textiles, drawing, printmaking, sewing, and collage techniques to tell stories of urban life, the body, and humanity. Her characters possess an ordinary grace grounded in reality: they are reflections of the artist or people she can imagine meeting in Harlem, her hometown.
