The Heads Up, Keep Swimming art exhibition by internationally lauded and fast-rising star, Modupeola Fadugba, will open at an invitation-only launch at Temple Muse, ahead of the much anticipated Art X Lagos Contemporary African Art weekend in Lagos, Nigeria.

Heads Up, Keep Swimming is curated by SMO Contemporary Art, and presents exciting new works by Fadugba exploring the intricate balance between competition vis-à-vis cooperation within the stormy sea of the commercially driven global art scene. Fadugba’s intricate, partially burned drawings on paper depicting female synchronized swimmers, red balls and gold leaf high lights, speak to winning in the “game of life” while considering the importance of cooperation & communal values.

Curator: Sandra Mbanefo Obiago (SMO Contemporary Art)
