Catalogue Note

Emmanuel Cooper (in Slayter-Ralph 2004: 32) notes: "Odundo works slowly and rhythmically with a hypnotic-like quality, whether creating the form or burnishing the surface. She constantly draws the shapes she is thinking about, planning changes and sketching variations in a fascinating thinking process before starting work. Her drawings, full of life and vitality, offer real insight into the ideas that inform each piece."
