Trading Memories 2022

Directed by Olukemi Lijadu

A moving image work and soundscape that incorporates film, sound, and photography. A collection of photos were discovered in 2021 at an antique market in London’s Notting Hill. The striking nature of these images, functioning as a time capsule far from their original context, immediately conveyed to the artist that they depicted a Nigerian Yoruba family from the early 2000s.
