Key Works

Rich in material and symbolic properties, Tim Whiten’s cultural objects and ritual performances are inspired by his African heritage and his childhood memories, as well as his in-depth understanding of mysticism, alchemy, religious traditions, classical myths, and legends. Exploring the nature of consciousness, spirituality, and transcendence, his practice traces his own pursuit of enlightenment. On this journey, he invites audiences to share in these processes of self-reflection.
