The Osahon Okunbo Foundation (TOOF) 

 

The Osahon Okunbo Foundation (TOOF) joins our Global Circle of supporters. This significant two-year donation will support residencies in Lagos and assist in the realisation of the 2025 Re:assemblages Symposium. TOOF’s support and donation will fund a series of residencies dedicated to supporting Nigerian artists, curators, designers, and researchers. The programme will provide the time, resources, and infrastructure for practitioners to experiment, exchange ideas, and develop new work. In a context where long-term support systems such as sustainable funding, dedicated spaces, and accessible platforms remain limited, this investment directly addresses systemic gaps within Nigeria’s creative ecosystem while nurturing the next generation of cultural voices.

Chinyere Obieze

Chinyere Obieze is a cultural producer who investigates the material negotiations of knowledge systems across technology, nature, culture, and economy. Their practice interrogates how these interconnected forces shape and inform artistic production, with a focus on fostering critical thinking, interdisciplinary practices, and inclusivity in contemporary art spaces. She is currently building frameworks to understand Africa’s evolving presence in digital environments.

 

Obieze curates Klub der Weishet KDW, an ongoing project that works to animate philosophical ideas with performance art; she has also curated Dreaming New Worlds (2023), Kedu Lagos (2024), and was a curatorial assistant for Lagos Biennial (2024) themed: Refuge. They will curate the 5th Lagos Biennial.
