Two African artists, Anne Adams from Nigeria and Lulama Wolf Mlambo from South Africa, recently displayed their new works at the Affinity Art Gallery, Lagos. Themed A Vernacular Homage to Architecture and Design, the joint show, was held between July 31 and August 28, 2021.
The exhibition is organised by Affinity art gallery in collaboration with Undiscovered Canvas, an agency based in France.
According to the organisers, the collaboration aims to unify, uphold and celebrate the history, culture, and traditions of Africa. The artists embark on an artistic storytelling journey with mediums such as ceramics, paintings, and video, using their artistic expression and contemporary lens to pass information handed down through generations by African matriarchy.
