Episode Four brings us Wangechi Mutu's RIDING DEATH IN MY SLEEP, our first example of contemporary art inside the Galler-E for this exhibition! With RIDING DEATH IN MY SLEEP, we also discuss collage, colonialism, porno mags, crafting beauty out of pain, and how the way we make art can reflect what the art means.
