Slow down and engage deeply with a single artwork from Nigerian Modernism, Susanne Wenger's Oduduwa Creation Myth
November's Slow Looking will focus on the artwork Oduduwa Creation Myth (Susanne Wenger, 1963), with a talk delivered by the storytellers behind Adeche Atelier, Adwoa Botchey and Solomon Adebiyi.
Whether a painting, film scene, photograph, sculpture or installation, Slow Looking offers a focused, accessible analysis that reveals layers of meaning, technique, and cultural context. Rather than surveying broad movements or artists’ careers, Slow Looking celebrates the power of paying attention — asking what one artwork can teach us about our world.
Perfect for art lovers, students, and curious minds alike, this series transforms observation into insight in the course of an hour, offering a space for meaningful discussion and connection.
