SHEER presents artist Mwinga Sinjela ’s debut solo exhibition titled GRASSLANDS on view from March 15th-April 13th at Chashama, 1155 Avenue of the Americas, NY, NY 10036. The very name of the exhibition represents savannas in Mwinga’s native Zambia, where vast open spaces stretch to the horizon and have come to represent abundant possibilities and life. GRASSLANDS is a celebration of Black and Queer people and is heavily inspired by Afrofuturism, science fiction, animation, and comics which are all mediums that allow Mwinga to tap into a source of boundless possibility and imagination.

MWINGA SINJELA

Mwinga Sinjela is a Zambian painter based in New York. His work depicts heroic, gender-fluid Black figures in otherworldly terrains. Drawing inspiration from the diverse cultural landscape of Zambia, as well as the dynamism of contemporary global culture, he creates new dimensions unbound from the constraints of the present and propelled by the infinite possibilities of the future.
