My Travel Story

by: Olutomi Kassim Start Date: Jul 31, 2023 - End Date: Jul 30, 2024
I am a Visual Artist and Performer, currently undertaking a PhD program titled 'Staging Activism', which looks at the potential of a activism through performance art to instigate social and political change, thus solving social problems such as poverty and unfair distribution of resourches etc. My PhD is intended to develop an area of research relevant  to the current global socio-political atmosphere, and also includes workshops in response to the current global socio-political climate, following on from the global pandemic.

I also co-own and run Old Glory by Isinmi, an emerging Adire textile co-operative based in Lagos Nigeria. This project is also intended to create jobs which pay the indigenous artists what they are worth.
