LANABLACK Comes to Terra Kulture
A one week extraordinary photography show that will be unveiling to the world a refreshingly new art form called LANABLACK will be showcased at a solo exhibition of the recent works of Mr. Tunji Lana, from April 10 to 17 at the Terra Kulture Art Gallery in Victoria Island, Lagos.
“LANABLACK is a style of photography art that speaks to the viewer to see the world in a different way. It is a very imaginative and expressive creative form of photography. It appeals and demands the art aficionado to see a new perspective of what ordinarily is and stretch the imaginative power of the human mind,” Lana enthused.
As the originator of LANABLACK, he said that his concept of art also has a message for mankind that designed to challenge, provoke and excite people. He clearly stated that it is a mind-set that is not unbending but a re-creation that makes "everything international" where every object has an opportunity to become more and every subject has the opportunity to see what could be more.
Interesting, the ardent artist, Lana, explained LANABLACK to be a visual interpretation of a mind-set he is urging the world to be magnetized by, to appreciate and to adopt. Technically, he elaborated that LANABLACK captures the expressive nature of light and shade, springing forth tones and textures, drama over subtlety and subtlety over drama; ultimately taking the viewer though a new experience.
His works, beyond doubt, are abstract and timeless. They appeal to the art enthusiasts, leaving them to muse twice on the images. This concept introduced by Lana in 2014 is being formally launched this year through a one-week double location exhibition.
