Press Release
The series originated when Nodjoumi, short on money and supplies, began the daily practice of drawing or painting on the front page of each day's New York Times. The relationship between image and text in the series is loosely allusive, but never didactic, the events of the day overlaid with personal, mystical, and erotic images-whatever was on the artist's mind that day. Amounting to a kind of visual diary, the series is both a time capsule and a vision of an individual navigating complex political currents while caught between the pull of two bitterly opposed countries.
