Throughout his practice, Ola-Dele Kuku, has consistently reshaped representation in a timely challenge. In this pavilion he works with drawing, installation, and objects, as well as revisiting, in an unconventional approach, the mainstays of architectural representational methods - plan, elevation and, section - to inject unsettling slippages into their rigorous formalism.
The exhibition creates a stratification of tensions between methods, concepts and the materials used. It's an unexpected and site-specific use of the space with contemporary art in which the curatorial concept starting from a sentence of an installation: "Africa is not a country!"; In that conflict wants to prospect new methodologies.
