25 February 2026

We are thrilled to announce that Otobong Nkanga has been invited to participate in the 61st International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia by Koyo Kouoh. Congratulations to Otobong!

Otobong Nkanga’s work foregrounds ecological themes of relationality and becoming through a distilled poetics of entanglement. Her multidisciplinary practice examines the complex social, political, and material relationships between bodies, territories, minerals and the earth. Through drawing, installation, performance, photography, textiles and sculpture, Nkanga creates pathways translating the natural world – its plants, herbs, minerals and living organisms – into networked, aggregated situations evoking memory, labour, home, care, ownership, emotion, touch and smell.
