Description
The first museum display exploring the work of artist and designer Yinka Ilori, celebrating a mix of cultural influences and will unpack the ingredients of a diasporic visual language.
Visitors will see over 100 objects, ranging from artworks, photographs and furniture, to textiles, books and personal possessions. Seen together, they offer an unprecedented glimpse into Ilori's use of the power of design to absorb cultural influences and express London's rich mix of identities.
Yinka Ilori is a London-based designer whose work enlivens the public realm with installations and murals in a playful combination of colour and pattern. He founded his eponymous studio in 2017. The display will begin by introducing visitors to Ilori's studio and the sources it draws influence from. It will then highlight three main strands of his work: architecture, furniture and graphic design.
Visitors will also find out about the creation of some of Ilori’s most recognisable projects, through key models, photographs, drawings and contextual material.
