I started creating these memory board style installations in 2016. Izozo in my local language Bini means “to wander”. It literarily describes this installation. I lay my thoughts out and the wall acts like a notice board where I spread them out. It’s a memory board suited to different situations that have occured. This particular memory board was created in Lagos and it focused on recollecting a memory from a place I visited 2 years before. I drew things I remembered, used maps from the place, photos I took there and objects I collected and used while I was there.
