Who are these works for?
They are for anyone who looks at it. 

Creating these three works took a heroic effort. Working for months, day and night, weekdays and weekends, in the studio with ten technical assistants and three administrators. It’s a process that couples exhaustion and euphoria. 

And when we finally had them standing and polished, I couldn’t believe what we had done. Even when looking at them, it’s hard to believe that they actually exist in the real world. 

I feel so grateful to be the channel that brings these sculptures into existence, the conductor of this metaphysical orchestra. 

Modeling in the photograph is the studio’s best looking technicians, Tinei and Kuda. 2025-07-22 17:05:04 Who are these wor.. 348 +28% 32 +184%
It was so much fun to conceptualize, realize and then materialize this 4m high work, Monumental Murmur (Aurora), at Schloss Leopoldskron during Salzburg Global Africa Focus Summit.

I also had the pleasure of giving a talk during the summit about art, creativity and the myriad multicultural hands that go into making these works. 

Creative collaboration and cooperation is humanity’s greatest strength. It is what defines the abundance of our civilizations. It gently washes us. 

I hope that these works are a testament to the extraordinary possibility’s of the African continent and the radiant capabilities of our people. 

Man cannot live by bread alone.

As a sculptor, I always find it absurd when a work is considered “complete.”
The idea of finishing a work is something many people question: When do you know it’s finished?
Identifying that moment is like trying to pinpoint when a river becomes a cloud through evaporation.
Can one ever truly say that a work is finished?

A work, for me, is a polestar—something that orients me in the fog of creative mania.
A node in a genealogy.

In 2020, I encountered this idea made real—standing four meters high in steel at Norval Foundation.
And now, five years later, I’ve reworked the same piece, Marmara, and titled it Marmara Moon.

At what moment does a waxing moon wane?
Has the moon ever really halved—or is it actually always the same?

It’s such an honour of mine to show my work “Sunrise Murmur” at the 15th Dakar Biennale titled “The Wake” curated by Salimata Diop. 

Sunrise Murmur is the most detailed and energetic work I have made in the Murmurations series. It commemorates renewal and the rising sun. Approximating fire, plasma and heat, the work embodies the nature of change and the law of impermanence.

How to make magic:
Start at “That which we have imagined” 
Then contemplate “What ever may exist” 
Then consider “What ever might be imagined “ 
And end up with “That which exists”

(This is according to Steve Reinke and his description of everything in a video work called “Ribs Get in the Way”, 2014)

I have a kind of compulsion to do one thing over and over and almost all the time. That’s why my work is so repetitive. It’s really comforting to think if I just do one thing over and over everything will be okay.

“Time” and “space” are two different words for understanding the phenomena. 
Time describes change in space.
Space is the only effect of time.

I always wanted my work to celebrate the way in which nature creates. 
A situation where the more you look, the more you see. 
The miracle of being alive is that where we look up towards the sky or down towards a blade of grass, both are as sublime, complex and mysterious as one another. 2024-05-09 17:28:31 I always wanted my work t.. 214 -22% 5 -56%
