They each have dozens of solo and group show credits in the greater New York City area. Mr. Ndoye additionally has shown in: Indianapolis, Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Washington DC, Germany, and Senegal. Ms. Ndoye works in mixed media and fiber, including installations. After teaching and traveling extensively throughout the world, she has spent the last two decades creating soft sculpture that she calls her "dolls" and has crafted a rich and lively culture around their "way of life" – including a language, religion, and governmental structure. Ms. Ndoye depicts all these activities and cultural constructs in her drawings, paintings, and installations. To learn more about Liz Ndoye and her artwork, visit her website here. Ibou Ndoye works in mixed media and glass painting. He was born in West Africa's most progressive capital city, Dakar, Senegal. Regularly surrounded by colorful African textiles and fabrics, Mr. Ndoye says he "socialized with art and cohabited with colors" from a very young age. He further shares, "My paintings are the short stories from oral traditions that teach, inform, awake and communicate with your subconscious."

The Museum is thrilled to feature the work of these two established artists and we are intrigued to see what will happen when Ms. Ndoye's artwork and Mr. Ndoye's artwork are "Adjacent" to the other's.
