Presentation
Temitayo Ogunbiyi (b. 1984) uses a variety of techniques including: drawing, fabrics, collage, and installations to respond to contemporary channels of communication in physical and virtual space. Her works are peppered with stories or instructions, from Internet anecdotes to prayers, recipes, and dreams. Her approach is often site-specific, and explores shared forms and histories of growth and pattern—as textile, ritual, celebration, and repeated gesture.
Temitayo’s recent work celebrates and draws links between three dominant aspects of contemporary Nigeria—hair braiding, pineapple production, and prayer. Exhibitions of her work have taken place at Tiwani Contemporary, London, selected by Zina Saro-Wiwa (2016); Museum of Contemporary Diasporan Art, Lagos (2013); Pulitzer Art Foundation, St. Louis (2012); and Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos (2012).
