Award-winning British/Nigerian multi-disciplinary Artist. Initially trained as a Painter, before turning to the moving image while undertaking a Masters in Spatial Design.

Research led practice which investigates the relationship between performance and narration. This is conveyed through digital films that are often supported by interactive architectural mechanisms. These devices probe space, and are fundamental to the introduction of notions like the role of perspective in storytelling.

The work explores ideas of fragmentation, by collaborating with places in flux, or interrupting indefinite landscapes and landmarks. It is also interested in questioning storytelling in all its guises, including the exchange of information, the rhythms of conversation and the nuances of language.

I have exhibited internationally including Europe, America, Asia and Australia.

In 2013, I was presented with the ‘Newcomer Award’ by the ‘European Media Art Festival’, Germany and the French cultural body 'Arte Creative'.

I live and work between London, UK and Lagos, NG.
