Joel Mpah Dooh: Time to Meet

12 Mars - 3 Avril 2016
From March 12 to April 3, 2016, Omenka Gallery and Alliance Francaise as part of Francophonie Week 2016 will present Time to Meet, an exhibition of recent work by Cameroonian artist, Joel Mpah-Dooh’s. This is Mpah Dooh’s first solo exhibition in Nigeria and he will present recent work on aluminium arising from the depth of introspection regarding the way fellow humans act in the world. The artist projects these contemplations in metaphors relying on a medium, means and style. In this regard, Dooh’s Time to Meet comes in a complex of images that dwell on the contradictions of human life. Perhaps, in consideration here is Dooh’s style that consists of suffusion of the lines, which make his figures compelling; they appear to tease his audience, with his love for graffiti and child-like art.
