In this second episode, Jonas Schwarz Lausten speaks with Nengi Omuku, a highly talented Nigerian artist who received her formal art education at the prestigious Slade School of Fine Art in London. With a keen interest in creating meaningful and impactful art, Nengi believes in the power of empathy as a driving force for her creative process. Upon returning to Nigeria in 2012 after her studies, Nengi was eager to reconnect with her homeland and found inspiration in collecting textiles, particularly the traditional "Sanyan." Through her art, Nengi explores the complexities of Nigerian culture and seeks to highlight the beauty and diversity of the country's traditions. Her work has been widely recognized locally and internationally and continues to significantly contribute to the world of contemporary art. She's exhibited at Kristin Hjellegjerde Galleries in the US and UK, Bangkok Art Biennale, World Trade Organisation Headquarters, Yemisi Shyllon Museum of Art, Lagos, and the list goes on and on. 

On the 4th floor in a modern Oniru building in Lagos, Nengi has set herself up in a bright and light space with large windows overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the city of Lagos on the other. 

When I visited her, she was working on the last details of a massive piece for Art Basel in Miami - painted in her usual method on Sanyan.

Besides laughing a lot and being generous, she baked… not one cake but two different types when I visited her. And they were so good. She's just a lovely person.

In this very first episode, host, Jonas Schwarz Lausten visits Wura-Natasha Ogunji. Tugged away in a serene compound in Ikoyi, Lagos, Jonas meets Wura in her studio and private home. Her place is clean and minimalistic with bright colors and big windows. They sit down in her living room and chat about her practice and work. She talks about traveling, taking courses, and wanting to make beautiful things.

In large-scale paintings, delicately stitched drawings on architectural tracing paper, and videos Wura explores history, memory, and place.

Wura is a heavyweight in the Nigerian art scene. Ogunji often uses her own body to explore e.g. homeland, identity, and the presence of women in public space in Lagos, Nigeria
