Malaika Temba

American/Tanzanian 1996- 


Born in 1996 in Washington, D.C., Malaika Temba is a visual artist based in New York City. Her textile works honour the labour and resilience of the diaspora's aunties and femmes, confronting gendered notions of softness and exploring themes of labour, care, and global trade. Using fabric as a medium, Temba addresses the complexities of responsibility, nurture, and the passage of time. Having grown up in Saudi Arabia, Uganda, South Africa, Morocco, and the United States, her work embraces intercultural connection, reflecting on the intricacies of globalization.
