Lanre Danmola & Sabrina Rovello
“SIMI”
Lanre and Sabrina present a collage of raw images that express the primal nature of the human condition when stripped back. We wanted to capture the dirt of the human condition. For most of our days we are chained by of our honest emotions. Conditioned to be clean. Through a collection of images you see the artist embrace the dirt, the mess the primal nature we all have that lies within.
As we age as humans, we lose touch with ourselves. Our primal raw selves. Our dirt. Our mess is often seen to be most fitting behind closed doors or not see at all, just hidden within. But as we embrace our inner raw primal nature and express, we set ourselves free. We find freedom, colour, humanity and finally peace. Over the collection of images, you see an artist take on this journey. Whilst these photos are still in nature, they speak volumes. To be free we need to embrace our mess and dirt. It is the part of us that we hide but the part that makes us the most human.
