Somewhere In Lagos
$7,000.00
Somewhere In Lagos is an atmospheric, bird's-eye study of dusk settling over the urban landscape of Lagos. Under an expansive, overcast sky sculpted with broad palette knife sweeps of slate and cloud grey, the city’s dense architecture recedes into the twilight. A central avenue cuts through multi-story tenement blocks, alive with the glow of vehicle brake lights, commercial yellow danfo buses, street vendors, and overhead utility lines. Glowing amber windows and distant red antenna towers punctuate the moody dusk tones, capturing the relentless momentum, quiet mystery, and organized chaos that make Lagos an unforgettable metropolis.
