1. Brazenly Disavowed Stratum, 2010, [plastic bags, twine and wood] x150cm.96cm x 5596cm The work Brazenly Disavowed Stratum, comprises of a weaved or crocheted plastic bag spread on a wooden frame, standing perpendicularly with a cone-like shape akin to the face of a loud speaker. Metaphorically it describes the outrageous, but disruptive building up of talk on the solutions to Nigeria`s energy crisis without mindful manifestation of infrastructural changes to support the existing power structures. For more than a decade Nigeria has been experiencing power failure that has affected virtually all aspect of national life. Despite the gigantic noise about the huge budget allocation to this sector, its privatization, change of directors, change of ministers ,personnel and other seeming changes around the subject.
