Ndidi Emefiele's artist talk was one of the highlights of #ArtSummitNigeria2019

Explaining why her subjects have large heads, she said;

"Most of my work somewhat have an exaggerated hair feature which is somewhat inspired by the ancient Yoruba culture and African tradition."

Our panel discussion on 'The Visual Art Eco-system' explored the different models that artists, curators and art professionals use to foster and disseminate art.

How effective do you think social media can be in the distribution of art?

Art Summit Nigeria 2019 was full of great introspection and candid conversations.
