Chigozie Obi: In Stillness of Being
26 OCT - 23 NOV 2024
Yenwa is delighted to present In Stillness of Being, the second solo exhibition by Nigerian artist Chigozie Obi. Building on the success of her debut at ART X Lagos in 2022, Obi presents a new body of work consisting of 15 paintings accompanied by an immersive audio-visual installation. Through intimate depictions of Black women in moments of solitude and togetherness, Obi interrogates the nuances of rest, care, and resilience. This series is deeply rooted in personal narrative, particularly the loss of her mother, which sparked a reflective inquiry into the absence of photographic documentation and the urgency of preserving lived experiences through artistic practice.
