Folake Fatima Odukoya

Self-taught textiles artist

  • 🇳🇬 Badagry, Lagos, Nigeria
  • Valley View Studio
  • 1989 to 2005
  • English, Igbo, Spanish
I work mostly in textiles, sometimes street art. My first show was in 1989 at Valley View Studio, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog. Most of my work is inspired by old photographs. I sing in a choir. Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.

More about Folake

I've had 11 small exhibitions over the years. My favorite was the one with the worst lighting.
