ARTOMYSTIC is Obianuju Tóth's practice: music, ritual art, books, creative systems, and intimate gatherings.
There’s a question that follows me: Why does a capable woman know what she wants, and still keep doing things that makes her life smaller?
WHAT I MAKE
One idea takes the forms: ritual art, music, books, creative systems and gatherings.
Behind the work is a question I keep asking: What makes a capable woman interrupt her own life?
RITUAL ART
I make invisible behaviour physical: Sculptures with handmade grooves, carved voids, ropes inside woods using found materials.
MUSIC
Music about a woman becoming herself: her identity, desire and inheritance.
WRITING
Books about a woman trying to understand who she is, what she wants and what keeps getting in the way.
STUDIO
A working system for turning what you know into what you actually do.
THE GARDEN
A room where women can think aloud, make things and be fully themselves.
Some women restart a project just when it is ready to leave their hands. I wanted to understand why.
