OYEBOLA FAMUYIWA AND BERNARD KALU EXPLORE THE CULTURE, HISTORY, AND AESTHETICS OF LAGOS WITH 25 SPECTACULAR PHOTOGRAPHS SHOT FROM UNIQUE PERSPECTIVES AND ANGLES WHICH REVEAL THE PATTERNS, COLORS, TEXTURES AND COMPLEXITY OF THIS VIBRANT METROPOLIS WITH ITS EVER EXPANDING POPULATION AND CRITICAL ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES.
THE PHOTOGRAPHS REFLECT BRIEF MOMENTS OF SPONTANEITY CAPTURED BY THESE TWO SELF-TAUGHT PHOTOGRAPHERS WHO HAVE BEEN WORKING IN TANDEM FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS. VANTAGE POINT IS A TESTAMENT TO THEIR CONNECTION WITH THE CITY, AND THEIR ABILITY TO DOCUMENT FROM ABOVE AND BELOW THE MEBRANE OF LAGOS’ EVER CHANGING SOCIO-CULTURAL LANDSCAPE
