We congratulate our fellow Abdulrazaq Awofeso with his solo exhibition Broad Streets at Ed Cross Gallery in London.Â
Building on concepts explored in his 1-54 Marrakech presentation of the same name, Awofeso's solo show Broad Streets comprises more than a dozen new sculptural figures and tableaus collaged from discarded wooden pallets. Based on characters observed and encountered by the artist on two roads with the same name – one a hub of nightlife and socialising in Birmingham, UK, and the other a commercial centre in Lagos, Nigeria – Broad Streets draws parallels between the cities and the people who inhabit them.
The exhibition is open until 6 May.
