Around 2005 in Miami I first saw Olujimi’s work in a short film titled Winter in America, a collaboration with the artist Hank Willis Thomas. While Olujimi challenges established modes of thinking he also has a deep interest in history, political and personal, which he addresses through  installation, photography, performance, video, sculpture, and painting. In this recording Olujimi talks about the Wide Awakes movement, a recent film project in Times Square, and his North Star series, which will be featured in next year’s Fantasy America exhibition at The Warhol.
