Artist

Samuel Nnorom

Samuel Nnorom (NI)’s body of work comprises pieces of Ankara fabric / African wax print fabrics collected from either tailor's debris or cast-off clothes from homes and waste foams from furniture workshops. Through actions like sewing, rolling, tying, stringing, suspending, and cutting, he navigates the boundaries between textiles, painting and sculpture in a poetic rendition. His interest also lies in the social structures that fabrics represent; the bubbles that appear in his work are not only the result of a thorough process of stitching and sewing but also become representative of the social structures that have hold historically. The intent of his work is to engage the viewers in questioning the socio-political structures and the human conditions of their daily lives. ...
