Dilomprizulike
Multimedia artist (Nigeria)
Utne Reader September / October 2007
Dilomprizulike, the self-proclaimed 'junk man of Africa,' is among the most enigmatic of artists. He creates sculptures and performances that are tied deeply to traditional African masquerade yet informed by postmodern awareness. He lives in what seems to be a junkyard in a permanent performance, recycling the detritus of Lagos into artwork, clothes, a home, and a way of life that questions much of what we take for granted.
