Revilo in collaboration with Omenka Gallery, Lagos is proud to announce the publication of a new 56-page catalogue with texts by Oliver Enwonwu and Dapo Adeniyi, to accompany the exhibition Bubbles of Emotion by leading Nigerian sculptor Adeola Balogun.
Held in July 2017, Bubbles of Emotions, is Balogun’s second solo exhibition at the Omenka Gallery and presents a careful selection of 33 works predominantly sculpted in steel and incorporating mechanical parts–a departure from his preferred medium of rubber tyres.
According to Dapo Adeniyi, publisher of Position magazine, “…Balogun delves into the streams of social satire infusing amusement, which is common to the bite of social sarcasm even as the cartoonist of the newspaper does.”
