Very excited to introduce our new artist in residence at Terrarium Studio 🪷
Fataba (they/them) is an artisan, writer, movement and sound artist based in Tkaronto and belongs to a lineage of artisans and farmers from Kenya and Sierra Leone. They spent their
formative years in downtown Toronto and across many parts of Kenya. Fataba’s artistic collaborations tell a story of the poetics of relation, the affective registers of nature and
intimacy as an unfolding. Through the use of crochet, clay, glass, movement, sound and text,their mixed-media artistic practice explores rituals & teachings shared in the hearth of the
temporal (aisuru). Their work has been exhibited at Its Ok Studios, Nuit Blanche Toronto, 198 Contemporary Arts and published in Down River Road Magazine, J alada Africa, Burning House Press and Stedelijk Studies Journal.
