Brandon Ndife
Upcoming exhibition
Drop Pin will explore notions of the public and the private through a dialogue between recomposed fragments of the built environment and domestic furniture in Ndife’s sculptural vernacular. Given Ndife’s upbringing in Louisville, the work situates itself at the intersection of municipal infrastructure, ecology, and interior architectures. It will question what emerges from a city when conditions of power decide who, when, or what is invested in and what the outcome of those urban planning decisions might be for systemically disenfranchised groups of people.
About Brandon
Brandon Ndife (born 1991) creates sculptures that merge domestic forms with elements of the natural world through meticulous hand-building, casting, and painting. His work considers how everyday objects index life under capitalism while imagining alternative futures in which human-made and natural worlds converge. Ndife has presented solo exhibitions at Greene Naftali, New York (2024); Matthew Brown Gallery, Los Angeles (2022); and Storm King Art Center, New Windsor (2022), and has been included in major group exhibitions such as the New Museum Triennial (2021). His work is held in the collections of the Baltimore Museum of Art, the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, and The Studio Museum in Harlem. He lives and works in New York.
