New Sculptural Works at SPARK Art Fair
At SPARK Art Fair Vienna 2025, Ogboh expands his conceptual inquiry into a sculptural language. His new works extend the interactive principle of “ÅNDAS – GLEICH”, emphasizing materiality, corporeality, and language. A key element of these sculptures is the integration of textual forms from African and European cultures, which coexist without merging or altering each other. Particularly striking is the use of Nsibidi script, a traditional symbol system of the Igbo people and other West African ethnic groups. As a centuriesold non-linear writing system, Nsibidi uses ideographic signs to convey fundamental concepts such as community, power, and identity.
