Randoms, here and there, and when...

Its been a long while I updated my blog. A lot of things going on :)
Okay, just have some random shots here. These images were taken at Osogbo, osun State in Nigeria.
The essence of the trip was to connect to some part of history which I have been far away from. It was organised by CCA, Lagos in 2012. I made connections with Osun-Osogbo Art and Festival, the Tye and Dye fabric design process at the Nike Art Center, dance, culture and beliefs of the people. It was wonderful!

Sango was a powerful king in Yoruba Land in Old Oyo Empire. Sango was known as a king of thunder because whenever he is angry, he spits fire from his mouth. So, there was an act on it.

'Deity'


'The Little lady'


'How We Dance It'


'The Waiting Commuter'


'Dye Pots'


'How We Dance It, ii'


'Deity, ii'


I hope I was able to tell the history in these few lines.
