I remember Olu on Majoro Street, Yaba-hard at work ; an alchemist turning scrap metal to intricate art forms. I remember his acolytes and apprentices-learning the basics of welding and learning from the master himself how to conjure magic out of waste...how to see beauty in the midst of madness and nothingness. Olu Amoda’s work has always fascinated me and stopped me in my tracks by its sheer creative boldness and iconoclastic features. I am thrilled that his dream lives on and continues to find deeper expression on the global stage

His work is thought provoking.I adore ‘This is Lagos’ the most,i could stare at it for hours and still discover something new.

Olu has been one of those enduring and fascinating reminders of the primeaval artist, Sokoti; the heavenly smith and the guardian of portals.

Its good seeing someone who has played a role in encouraging me to be consistent and determined as an Artist and a very great mentor and motivator. I have seen couple of his engaging and energetic works in Lagos and i hope the English audience will be thrilled seeing one of most innovative Nigerian Artists exploring more visual platforms in Europe. expects to see captivating works from Amoda. and to Victoria and Albert museum, best wishes as you host Amoda.

An interesting use of industrial materials - although individually the materials are quite brutal they somehow convey something made of lace. And I like the colour!
