My art explores
various structures in the human material and mental worlds
along the line of hegemony, homogeneity, destabilization,
chaos, uniformity, dogma, serenity and power. The character
of third world cities, particularly Lagos, Nigeria, holds
a huge fascination for me with regard to how it morphs temporality
and spatiality. The architectonic of Lagos as a mega city,
for example, opens up questions on cultural narcissism,
third world mobility and globalization processes. By fusing
art and technology in my new media interventions, I effect
a constructive dialogue with the various facets of the third
world city and offer a critical insight on the pulse of
the city. My creative templates mainly include sound, video
and photography.

My Thoughts on Urban Dialogues
Globalization redefined...different spaces and time, different
cities, different cultures, different artists and one project.
