🏊🏿‍♂️#ArtIsAWeapon #Artist: Modupe Fadugba @modupeola.fadugba #Artwork: Pillars • • www.modupeola.com - "Modupeola Fadugba (born 1985 in Lomé, Togo) is a multimedia artist working in painting, drawing, and socially-engaged installation. With a background in engineering, education and economics, she comfortably inhabits the nexus of many disciplines. Her works explore cultural identity, social justice, game theory, and the art world within the socio-political landscape of Nigeria and our greater global economy... Her exhibition, Dream from the Deep End, depicts swimmers exploring collaborative ways of being in the water together, set against the bleak backdrop of America's racialized -- and oftentimes tragic -- swimming history. The work was exhibited at Gallery 1957 in Accra, Ghana as part of a multimedia exhibition that reflects the sheer scope of their individual stories and collective experiences as swimmers." • • Reposted from @retroafrica Modupe Fadugba tells triumphant stories of swimmers and lifeguards in her works. Stories that go beyond survival, stories of community, learning, teaching, togetherness and play. #ModupeFadugba #artisticswimming #synchronizedswimming #BlackArt #AfricanArtists #BlackPeopleSwim #BlackGirlArtGeeks https://www.instagram.com/p/ChkGupcAETo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
