tan-renga series - uchechukwu onyedikam and christina chin

soft rain

interfering with the festival 

Ijebu Ode

sludge under 

pop-up canopies


— Uchechukwu Onyedikam/Christina Chin







day by day

becoming impossible 

become one

loud speakers blast

election campaigns 


— Uchechukwu Onyedikam/Christina Chin







appearing 

mud of a charged bull

flying through the air

women and men flushed 

against the wall


— Uchechukwu Onyedikam/Christina Chin
