Not sure this person meets any point of WP:NARTIST. Couldn't find any substantial sources about her on a search. The citations on this article are all to galleries and exhibitions that she has been featured in, but those are not independent sources when considering notability - what matters is independent coverage of her exhibitions, which I can find no evidence of. ♠ PMC♠ (talk) 11:00, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

Weak keepI found a couple of book sources as as well as a decent mention in Artnews. She certainly exists and has some recognition for her work. It's not as extensive as would be ideal, hence the weak keep. ThatMontrealIP ( talk) 12:19, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
- Change to Keep, after finding she is also in UCLA Fowler museum permanent collection. ThatMontrealIP ( talk) 18:03, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

- Comment it appears that her work was included in "Mami Wata: Arts for Water Spirits in Africa and Its Diasporas" a traveling exhibition orginated at the Fowler Museum at UCLA that travelled to several venues including National Museum of African Art, as referenced in this essay "Drewal, Henry John. “Mami Wata: Arts for Water Spirits in Africa and Its Diasporas.” African Arts, vol. 41, no. 2, 2008, pp. 60–83. JSTOR, www.jstor.org/stable/20447886." I have requested the catalog to verify: Drewal, H., Houlberg, Marilyn, & Fowler Museum at UCLA. (2008). Mami Wata : Arts for water spirits in Africa and its diasporas. Los Angeles, CA: Fowler Museum at UCLA.-- Theredproject ( talk) 16:50, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
- Nice work-- the UCLA show led me to their colleciton, which she is included in. Changing to Keep as this is half way to WP:ARTIST, and certainly now meets GNG. ThatMontrealIP ( talk) 18:03, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

- Keep I was able to verify the exhibition, and the book. She had two works in the exhibition. I added the citations, with page numbers. -- Theredproject ( talk) 14:14, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
