Memory is not static. It is tactile, layered, and ever-shifting; etched into the surfaces of our lives through material, texture, and form. Material Memory brings together the works of Anthony Azekwoh, Gbemileke Adekunle, and Saheed Adelakun, three artists who engage deeply with the physicality of memory, using material as both a medium and a metaphor for personal and collective histories.
