Ije.
A Scottish / Nigerian artist-healer based in Warwickshire, Ije's practice explores landscape, drawing on a lifetime of moving across the UK and beyond, from mining and farming communities to industrial towns and cities, to wild spaces of mountains and coastlines.
Embedded in the Flesh of the World 1. Mixed Media.
Where the surface is shallow yet accessing depth / Through the spaces between the rhizome / Opening up the senses to the pleasure / How does it feel / To describe the moment between occasions / Seeking to tear down the constructs of temporality.
I Ran and Ran with Joy and the Surroundings became my Skin. Mixed Media.
“Running encounters when I free myself internally, a positive refrain, joyous & curious, bursting with encounters, with singularities and multiplicities”.
