Artist commissioned to create new work in response to RAMM’s collections as part of 'Earth Spells: Witches of the Anthropocene' exhibition. Ndiritu’s work draws on indigenous ideas that urge us to live and work for the benefit of all future generations and ecosystems. Her protest carpet is ‘activated’ through an intimate, spiritual ceremony in the museum.
