Lagos exhibition creates market for artists

The Lagos exhibition "Creation Speaks" aims to provide a platform for artists to showcase and sell their faith-based works, while also expanding the ecosystem around Christian art. Organised by the Redeemed Christian Church of God, City of David, and Fobally Art World Africa, the exhibition will run from October 15 for two weeks, featuring around 200 artists selected through an open-call process.

The event is designed to address market access gaps for artists, particularly emerging practitioners, by providing a wider audience and sales opportunities. Additionally, the exhibition emphasizes young artists, offering them a chance to interact with established practitioners and gain exposure to various aspects of the creative industry.

The organisers aim to create an environment for mentorship and networking, ultimately strengthening the creative network around Christian art.
