According to Folakunle Oshun, the Artistic Director of
the Lagos Biennial 2017, the vision of the festival “is not to mystify or
demystify, but rather to embark on a journey to explore multi-faceted scenarios
which will undoubtedly question the very essence of our humanity, spirituality,
and the interconnectedness of the universe.”
