I had the honour of talking to artist Peju Alatise (@pejutheartist) for @ElephantMag about her gorgeous art, Yoruba mythology, her girl hero Sim, childhood & uplifting marginalised children & their imaginary worlds when they endure the unimaginable🦋👇🌈

@progressnyando2 is a Zimbabwean mixed-media artist who incorporates fabric, wool, sack and acrylic paint in her works in an attempt to interrogate societal behaviors.
Visit our Lagos gallery to see her works in our current exhibition, 'Beyond Veils.'
Peju Alatise's work gives me life. It was such joy to finally see a solo exhibition of hers in London.
Well done to @ReleGallery on their new space in London. It's so encouraging to see more African-owned art galleries in Mayfair.
