Dating in Lagos: A Multisensory Exhibition
Live in October 2025
Dating in Lagos is a cultural exhibition that explores what it means to long for, lose love, and find love in Nigeria's cultural capital. Within the context of the busy city, it invites you to reflect on your own actions and how we all contribute to the timeless phrase: No love in Lagos.
Through the recreated bedroom of a single Lagos woman, you’ll step into a world built with installation, imagery, scent, and sound that mirrors the tenderness, chaos, and contradictions of dating here.
What to Expect
- Immersive Installations: Walk through a space that reimagines private and public moments of love, longing, and loss in Lagos. From text message walls to intimate set designs, every detail pulls you into lived experiences.
- Photography & Visual Art: Stirring visual art that captures the energy of Lagos relationships, from first dates to situationships and everything in between.
- Soundscapes & Storytelling: Hear the sounds of Lagos love: late-night calls, internal heartbreak rants, and the unspoken words that linger after the date ends.
- Interactive Moments: Leave your mark on the exhibition. Write, confess, or reflect, because dating in Lagos is a collective story we’re all part of.
Dating in Lagos is a conversation. Come ready to see yourself. Come ready to feel.
