My name is Ayomide Tejuoso (Plantation) and I am a Nigerian British artist based across London and Lagos, Nigeria. Working across text, photography, installation, and film, my work is a black feminist manifesto, devoted to the West African disposition. My artistic practice is an inundated journey to self– to my reflections as a Yoruba woman in Europe, and my dislocations as I engage with histories of Black dispossession and resilience. To me black art is praxis, it is a political assertion, and a redemptive vision. Within this framework, my visual projects consist of stills of golden crucifixes on darkened lips, black boys in football jerseys on broken motorbikes, braided shukus and dashing horses; all image transferred on wooden installations. Subsequently, My photographs and installations have been exhibited in prestigious institutions across Europe and West Africa, including La Rada Gallery, Krakow Photomonth Festival, Motormond Gallery, Gallery 1957, Gallery 198, Photo Vogue Festival, Foam Amsterdam, OSCAM Museum, and Rele Gallery.

Commercially, I work as a writer, film director, photographer, and visual director. I have contributed essays and editorials to PDF Magazine, The Fader, Essence Magazine, TWIST Magazine, New Currency Magazine, Nataal Media, PhotoVogue, Mulieris Magazine, British Journal of Photography, and Foam Amsterdam. I collaborate with musicians to create visual rollouts; from release covers and press images to music videos, I work closely with them as a visual director and image-maker to shape and build their visual identities. I have worked with Celeste, Annahstasia Enuke, Amy Gadiaga, Wu-Lu, Poison Anna, Parijita, and Divine Earth. Through this, I am developing 00IDEATION, a creative studio and research laboratory that builds iconoclastic visual mythologies through ideation and conceptual art methodologies.
