I am an independent curator and writer whose work spans modern-contemporary art, material culture, and cultural criticism. My research interests include examining the politics of clay, contemporary performance art—particularly site-responsive performance in West Africa—and the work of Nigerian potter and ceramicist Ladi Dosei Kwali (1925-1984).
My approach to modern and contemporary art is cross-disciplinary, yet performance art serves as a key framework for both my academic and curatorial practice. I am particularly interested in how artists engage with materiality, embodiment, and social histories to challenge dominant narratives.
In 2022, I curated Body Vessel Clay: Black Women, Ceramics and Contemporary Art, a groundbreaking exhibition exploring how Black women artists have disrupted, questioned, and reimagined ceramics over the past seventy years. The show foregrounded the legacy of pioneering Nigerian potter Ladi Kwali and featured intergenerational artists working across ceramics and sculpture.
I have published widely across print and digital media.
