Yinka Shonibare ‘The British Library’ at Tate Modern
I finally got to see this installation at the Tate Modern museum amongst other beautiful and engaging artwork. Definitely worth an immersion! This is the work of Yinka Shonibare; to learn more about the artist and his work, do visit the website www.yinkashonibare.com. Most distinct about his body of work is that it often incorporates the use of Dutch wax print fabric, challenging ideas on culture, identity and globalisation.
Below is an excerpt from the Tate Modern website but do delve in using the links below to learn more about the work.
