She eventually made her way to Denmark, and ultimately to her present home in New York. Her practice, which spans painting, works on paper, murals, sculpture and mosaics, recalls the flamboyant textiles of Eastern Africa, the hyperkinetic tapestry of New York City and the vast countryside of both Turkana, Kenya, and upstate New York. Published on the occasion of the artist's first institutional solo exhibition, this clothbound monograph collects Uman's paintings, video, site-specific mural and sculpture.
