Senga Nengundi (born 1943) is interested in the visual arts, dance, body mechanics, and matters of the spirit. She has always used a variety of natural (sand, dirt, rocks, seed pods) and unconventional (panty hose, found objects, masking tape) materials to fashion her works, utilizing these materials as a jazz musician utilizes notes and sounds to improvise a composition. The thrust of her art is to share common experiences in abstractions that hit the senses and center, often welcoming the viewer to become a participant. 

She has held solo exhibitions at Thomas Erben Gallery, New York City; Just Above Midtown Gallery, New York; Woods Gallery, Los Angeles, CA; as well as numerous group shows. Nengundi received a BA and an MA in sculpture from California State University, Los Angeles.
