Wunika Mukan Gallery is proud to present "A Hundred Thousand Years and a Single Hour," a group exhibition showcasing the works of three dynamic Nigerian women artists-Jadesola "Jay "Olaniyan, Seyi Akinwumi, and Naomi Momoh.

The beginning of eternity and the end of eternity arch into Union" —the exhibition reflects on the fluidity of time and its profound impact on how we understand ourselves and our connections to others. Through their distinct artistic practices, these three artists weave together personal histories, cultural narratives, and spiritual reflections to create a collective meditation on existence.

This thought-provoking exhibition invites audiences to reflect on how memory shapes identity across time, highlighting the artists' shared ability to transcend temporal boundaries by transforming personal experiences into universal expressions. From Jay's exploration of tender moments in nature, to Seyi's layered visual language of introspection to Naomi's spiritual narratives rooted in mythologies-their works collectively remind us that time is both fleeting and eternal. Through their figurative practices these artists create a dialogue between the seen and unseen. They explore how our pasts echo within us while simultaneously shaping our present selves. The exhibition becomes an invitation for viewers to contemplate their own relationship with time: How do our memories define us? How do we reconcile fleeting moments with eternal truths?

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.
