About the Item

Lakin Ogunbanwo (b. 1987, Lagos, Nigeria) is a Nigerian photographer renowned for his evocative portraits that blend fashion photography with classical portraiture. His work is characterized by vibrant colours, bold compositions, and a minimalist homage to African studio photography traditions of the 1960s and 1970s. Ogunbanwo's subjects often appear veiled or obscured by drapery and foliage, creating enigmatic and subversive images. Central to his artistic exploration is the desire to document Lagosian culture, expand the contemporary African visual archive, and portray self-represented African narratives. His notable series include Are We Good Enough, focusing on traditional Nigerian men's headwear, and e wá wo mi, which showcases bridal attire from various Nigerian ethnic groups. Ogunbanwo's work has been featured in publications such as Vogue Italia, GQ, and The New Yorker, and is held in public collections including the National Gallery of Victoria and the Wedge Collection.
