Ife Olowu’s latest exhibition, “Metamorphosis: A Journey into the Future,” at Cera Cerini’s Art Hub in Lagos, Nigeria
is a groundbreaking exploration of the intersection between art and technology.
Ekpo magazine, serving as media partners, delves into this transformative experience
that began on December 3, 2023, and captivated audiences until December 15, 2023.
Olowu, a visionary Nigerian artist, is pushing boundaries by seamlessly blending the realms of technology and art.
In this, his first solo exhibition, he elevates his augmented reality (AR) art pieces to new heights
offering viewers an immersive encounter with an array of AR artworks.
Curated by Ire Bamiji Samson, “Ife Olowu’s Metamorphosis” goes beyond being a mere exhibition
it serves as a catalyst for change and provides a glimpse into the future of art.
The carefully curated showcase includes both private and public viewing sessions
underscoring the accessibility and inclusivity of Olowu’s visionary creations.
The exhibition also hosts an artist talk, where Ife Olowu engages with fellow Nigerian artists
in discussions revolving around “the business of art” and “artistic evolution.”
This dialogue not only enriches the viewer’s experience but also contributes to the broader conversation about the role of art in society.
In addition to the thought-provoking discussions, “Metamorphosis” features a private workshop
allowing attendees to delve into the artistic process, gaining insights into
Olowu’s unique approach to merging technology and traditional artistic mediums.
The grand finale of the exhibition promises to be a spectacular closing ceremony
complete with musical performances and the opportunity for attendees to acquire these transformative artworks.
