Envision a dimension where elegance seamlessly merges with decay and lyrical expression-this is the imaginative universe crafted by Precious Okoyomon, a Nigerian-American artist whose work evokes a surreal, pulsating garden teeming with mystery and life. Their creations explore the delicate balance between shadow and illumination, the fleeting and the everlasting. The newest exhibition, entitled “It’s important to have ur fangs out at the end of the world,” draws audiences into a story that feels both legendary and intimately raw, encouraging a bold openness beneath its commanding, vivid surface. In a recent interview, Okoyomon shared how the wild yet urban environments of Brazil inspired a recent installation piece. At the same time, the dynamic energy of Lagos and its vibrant community were transformed into an immersive sound sculpture, prominently featured at the Nigerian pavilion during the Venice Biennale.
