Mimi Onuoha
ITP and IMA Faculty member Chisom (Mimi) Onuoha was written up in the Nation Online for her Residency term in Lagos.
Chisom Onuoha is a conceptual artist who interrogates questions of power that are baked into technology. Through text, video, print, installation and computer code, Onuoha explores how computational structures and information systems intersect with social ones. In Lagos, she will continue her project The Library of Missing Datasets, an installation that pinpoints blank spots in data collections. This next chapter uses Lagos as the site of entry for investigating what it looks like to visualize and make work about the data that isn’t being collected around the city.
Onuoha will create a video piece that dwells on the geographic sites of absence within Lagos, focusing on the blank spots that animate the city.
