MEET THE ARTIST
Oribe x Thandiwe Muriu Holiday 2024
Inspired by the covers of prominent fashion magazines
and the rich cultural history of her own Kenyan heritage,
Thandiwe Muriu aims to highlight the natural beauty of women
with whom she identifies. Muriu photographs her subjects in
striking, intricately patterned fabrics that often resemble the
traditional textiles of various African countries and cultures.
Backdropping the subjects using the same vibrant pattern,
Muriu creates hypnotizing illusions. Muriu has increasingly
gained recognition for her distinctive images and was awarded
the 2020 People’s Choice Award for Emerging Photographer
of the Year at Photo London. Many of Muriu’s images also
feature models wearing ornately constructed hairstyles,
further illustrating her examination of themes surrounding
Black womanhood and pushing the boundaries of
beauty standards.
