Recently I attended the Sao and the muse 3 event and all i can say is i was awed by the level of creativity showcased by young Nigerian artists who spend time in their own unique ways , creating art in it's many forms. Sao and the muse is an annual art event , a creative's haven with diverse medium and bodies of work . The event is currently in it's third year, and it was held from August 3 - 5th , at  Sao cafe, Lagos. It was my first time attending and I would say it's different from other art exhibitions I have been to. There was a relaxed atmosphere enabling guests not to only see art but engage with it. This year exhibition themed "Collaboration Era"  explores the power of artists eith diverse mediums coming together to create out of the box art,  and below are the exhibiting artists and their installations for this year's Sao and the muse. "ULO" by POPARTII  & JANE MICHEAL EKANEM Ulo is a post modern art installat...

Creative MSMEs have invaded Nigeria and we certainly are not complaining. In 2016, it became apparent that Nigeria was an import driven nation and that was how the “Buy Naija to the grow Naira” came to be. However, various sects of the economy are realising that for Nigeria to diversify and become an export driven nation, the beam light falls on MSMEs. A fresh year is on the calendar and it is almost time for the second edition of the annual African Creative Exhibition and Awards (termed ACE Awards) hosted by Bellaafricana . It brings to Lagos the best creative minds in the fields of Art and Craft, Fashion, Manufacturing, Beauty, Food Produce and so much more.

Hello friends..........how have you been and I hope your week is going great?! I am so glad I finally get to post about my experience at ART X exhibition 2017 which took place at the civic center, Victoria island lagos between 3rd - 5th November. I attended the last exhibition that took place on the 5th and my first stop was the colouring bus which was placed out, I left my mark on the bus by signing my signature.  My next stop was the ground floor (indoor) where I took pictures at the ART X backdrop, from there I proceeded to the first level where artworks were displayed.  Lemi Ghariokwu's iconic record sleeves designed for flea kuti and the Ghana pesewa coins artwork by Yaw Owusu were both intriguing and breathtaking respectively.      Fela record sleeves by lemi Ghariokwu's  Pesewa coins artwork by Yaw Owusu This photographic artwork is so enthralling  At lakin ogunbawo ...

I know this is a break from the norm as I only blog about books review  and books recommendation but that's all going to change as I have decided to re- structure the blog and I am changing its niche from just a books blog to a books and lifestyle blog; I would  be sharing tiny bits of activities am into as a bookaholic.......okay enough said already, now back to the fashion weekend, I attended day 1 of it with biba of royalbiba.com and it was an alluring experience for me as I was able to network and make new friends, and I attended a master class by creative and celebrity photographer TY Bello which was interesting. The setup was nice and there was so many props to take pictures with and so many colourful backdrops to...
