LAOLU

"Laolu Senbanjo has a magnetism that can’t be explained. His art, consequently, reflects that; expressive and engaging, it pulls the viewer in, shapeshifting to explain itself within the context of your perception. Using a technique he calls Afromysterics, Laolu’s work draws from his Nigerian Yoruba culture, narrating stories through the sacred art of the Ori with an unspoken medium—paint. We're bringing voice to these previously nonverbal communications of story and history. With conversations between Laolu and his subjects, each video presents a new voice, and is given another layer of definition as a result—the spoken word." -Emma Banks. Published HERE
