ALARA Art on Thursday 19th May, 2016 unveiled ‘Down The Rabbit Hole’, a conceptual installation of light and photography by Logo Oluwamuyiwa “Logor” Adeyemi, featuring excerpts from his widely acclaimed ‘Monochrome Lagos’ and other works.
 
Logor, a photographer and filmmaker, works predominantly in 'black and white', taking the observer from 'clash' to 'subtlety', 'noise' to 'calm'.  This exhibition showcases the artist's unique approach to conceptual documentation of the human carnival. 
 
Logor's first major project, ‘Monochrome Lagos’, is a unique reflection on the city of Lagos that strips down the noisy colours of the busy metropolis. The works are a visual digital archive, a unique reflection on an old city, and an extraordinary exposė of its idiosyncrasies and aesthetics.  Logor showcases the beauty of this extraordinary city in a poetic, mystical, mythical and romantic form, delivering a place to which none has hitherto been or seen. Logor's is a fresh perspective on a well trod path, presented in enchanting portraiture and landscape photography.
 
In its breath, freshness and daring, Down the Rabbit Hole achieves a true paradigm shift in how the city is presented and appreciated by a global audience, including local residents who typically rush past the unchanging beauty of this old town.

Down the Rabbit Hole is Logor’s maiden exhibition with ALARA Art and doubles as the debut exhibition in the ‘ALARA Emerging Artists’ series. 
 
The exhibition opens to the public on Friday 20th May and runs until Thursday 30th June 2016
