Layers

Layers
"Layers” is a collection of photographic portraits celebrating the stages of
womanhood. Women from various backgrounds - aged between 19 and
90 years - were photographed in front of an evolving flower wall during a
three week period. Layers of freshly picked British flowers were added to
the wall as the project progressed. The added layers symbolize the
growth and depth womanhood with age.

I am a Nigerian visual artist based in London who expresses himself through photography and mixed media.
My work work is an expression of my journey and experiences as a Nigerian and a Brit. These two cultures inform the narratives in my work which straddles between fantasy and reality.
