Mavic Chijioke Okeugo is ready for his solo exhibition Age Series, on view from November 4–9, 2024 in Accra, Ghana Gallery 1957.
Age Series is a powerful body of photographic work that centers on intimate portraits of elderly men and women. Through a refined visual language and an empathetic lens, Okeugo explores aging as a site of dignity, memory, and resilience. The series challenges conventional representations of older bodies, offering instead images that celebrate presence, depth, and lived experience.
Rooted in portraiture, Age Series reflects on the passage of time and the narratives carried by those who have lived long lives. Each photograph serves as a quiet encounter, inviting viewers to pause and consider the emotional and cultural significance of aging within both African and global contexts.
The exhibition will be presented within Gallery 1957’s contemporary exhibition space, providing an intimate setting that encourages close engagement with the works. Audiences can expect a thoughtful and immersive experience that foregrounds human connection and storytelling.
Age Series marks an important moment in Okeugo’s practice, reinforcing his ongoing interest in identity, visibility, and representation through photography. The exhibition also aligns with Gallery 1957’s commitment to showcasing artists whose work engages critically with social and cultural narratives.
The public is invited to experience Age Series from November 4–9, 2024 at Gallery 1957, Accra.
