As we shimmy and shake into the sparkling new year of 2024, it’s that time again to don our most artsy scarves and embark on a cultural safari across London. Yes, you guessed it, we’re talking about our Five Exhibitions To See In London In January 2024 – because what better way to shed those holiday pounds than by zigzagging through galleries, feasting our eyes instead of our stomachs?
Berntson Bhattacharjee is excited to announce an upcoming solo exhibition by Nigerian-British artist Sola Olulode. Olulode will showcase a series of new works that are sure to captivate audiences with their vibrant imagery and narratives. Throughout history, the expressions of love and gender identity that deviated from the norm were often disregarded or suppressed, and even today, only a handful of well-known stories have gained recognition. However, Greek and Roman mythology provides a vast literary heritage that goes beyond the commonly known narratives. In this extensive body of work, Sola emerges as a storyteller who brings to life whimsical stories from the mythological universe, revitalizing queer gods and non-binary identities through a modern perspective.
