Temitayo Ogunbiyi
You will follow the Rhein and compose play
18 October 2023 – 14 January 2024
Playground installation in Solitude Park from 21 May 2023
The artist Temitayo Ogunbiyi, who lives in Lagos/Nigeria, investigates the potential of playful interaction to explore topics such as migration and exchange, but also material and social cultures. A first part of her project is a «playground» that invites visitors to climb, swing and play in Solitude Park as early as May. The work links Lagos with Basel: the shapes of the steel bars trace the paths that connect the two cities. In October, a multimedia exhibition in the museum will follow on from this, presenting works on paper and interactive musical installations.
