Ebun Sodipo is an artist and writer who makes work for black trans people of the future. Guided by black feminist study and a methodology of collage and fabulation, her work locates and produces real and imaginable narratives of black trans women’s presence, embodiment, and interiority across the past, present, and future. In doing this, Ebun Sodipo fills in historical gaps to create moments of archival pleasure for black trans people. This work takes place across multiple spaces: galleries, festivals, theatre, digital, and print.
Sodipo’s work has recently been exhibited at Soft Opening, Los Angeles, USA; Southwark Park Galleries, London; Inter.pblc, Copenhagen; Hannah Barry Gallery, London; Hauser & Wirth, Somerset; Neven, London; Vitrine, Basel, CH; Goldsmiths CCA, London; VISUAL Centre for Contemporary Art, Carlow, IR; FACT Liverpool; The Block Museum of Art, Evanston, USA and VO Curations, London.
