Lagos, Nigeria.

8 pieces

Lagos is a coastal megacity on lagoons and islands, loud and enormous and moving constantly. Bridges carrying traffic between the parts, markets that go on for streets, painted boats on brown water, and cloth in patterns that dominate every scene they appear in. The colour comes from the fabric and the boats. Music from here has gone round the world and keeps going. Nollywood makes more films a year than almost any industry on earth. Suya is grilled on skewers at the roadside after dark. The pieces here come as prints, ornaments and more.
