Artist: OLUWATOSIN JERUGBA (Salvador)
NOT FOR SALE. This work is part of the exhibition and is not available for purchase.
Year: 2020 | Medium: Paper & Glue | Dimensions: 29.7 x 42 centimeters | Display: Wall-hung (2D) | Digital work
Artist Statement
A stance against leftist echo chambers. This happy accident of a collage piece signifies to me the retired hotep, a converted celebrationist and reformed revolutionary. A black man still dreams of fucking the system, but he will do so whilst making space for black joy, as perhaps butterflies during the building of the pyramids, which has always been part of our history.
About the Artist

Her work has been exhibited at the Civic Theatre Dublin, Kafe Krise in Kassel, and Estacao Cabo Branco in Paraiba.
