Ayotunde Ojo: A Life of Its Own [Solo Exhibition]
2026-03-26 12:00 - 2026-06-27 18:00 (Africa/Lagos) | Tiwani Contemporary, Lagos, 13 Elsie Femi Pearse Street, Victoria Island, Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria
OPENING NEXT WEEK
Tiwani Contemporary is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Ayotunde Ojo, ‘A Life Of Its Own’, at its Lagos gallery.
Ojo presents his domestic interiors as living, shifting spaces, altered by light, stillness and movement, subtly capturing the temporal shifts that coexist within a shared space.
The exhibition reflects an awareness that life does not stand still. Relationships between lovers, friends, family and animals carry moments of closeness and potential friction. By layering multiple scenes together, Ojo introduces a quiet tension into the compositions. The home, perceived primarily as a site of stability, can become a space that both shelters and mirrors the instabilities of the outside world.
Exhibition dates: 26 March – 27 June 2026
Opening reception: Thursday, 26 March 2026, 6:00 – 10:00 pm

Woven & Built in Tandem [Exhibition]
2026-05-10 11:00 - 2026-06-20 18:00 | Rele Gallery, Lagos, 32 Thompson Ave, Ikoyi, Lagos, 106104, Nigeria
Rele, Lagos is pleased to present ‘Woven and Built: In Tandem‘, a two-person exhibition featuring works by Marcellina Oseghale Akpojotor and Patrick Akpojotor, marking ten years of shared life and practice.
Working across sculpture and textile, their distinct approaches unfold side by side, tracing a decade of making and building together.
Marcellina Akpojotor works with layered fabric, drawing on family photographs, archival imagery, and everyday materials. Her surfaces carry memory and lived experience, where private and collective histories remain visible.
Patrick Akpojotor approaches painting through the logic of building. Figures emerge through beams, frames, and planes that suggest structure and tension. In this exhibition, he moves between single figures and double portraits, considering how people occupy spaces.
Join us on Saturday, May 9, from 2-6 pm for the Opening reception.
