Olu Amoda's Laceration: A Jagged Beauty of Metal
Abstract
Olu Amoda's Laceration exhibition explores the jagged wounds and cuts of Nigeria's contemporary reality. It draws attention to a range of themes and sub-themes that are a legacy of that nation's corrupt system. According to Amoda, the exhibition makes visible, metaphors that are frequently misinterpreted. It speaks in oblique yet resonant tones about experiences that inspire the artist to create.
