About the Item

Yinka Shonibare African Bird Magic (Sokoke Scops-Owl and Okuyi Mask), 2024 Screenprint with archival pigment print on Somerset Satin Enhanced 330gsm paper 74 x 60 cm - Paper 60 x 48 cm - Image Edition of 30 Yinka Shonibare CBE RA is a British-Nigerian artist known for his exploration of cultural identity, colonialism, and globalization through vibrant, textile-based works. Born in 1962 in London and raised in both the UK and Nigeria, Shonibare incorporates Dutch wax fabric—a material historically linked to colonial trade—as a signature element in his sculptures, installations, and paintings. His works often reference European art history, reimagining classical figures in elaborate, colorful costumes without facial features, highlighting themes of race, power, and hybridity. A Turner Prize nominee, his art has been exhibited globally, and he has received numerous honors, including a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE).
