Work edit
 |
Mallam Mudi Yahaya is a visual artist whose work explores interpretations of African hybrid identities and their varied visual dialects, currencies, and vocabularies.[1] With the massive digitization of media data, Mallam Mudi Yahaya investigates aesthetics that connect postcolonial African identities mediated by still photography and cinema. Mallam Mudi Yahaya’s work further focuses on the relationship and tension between images as they interact with notions and strategies of post-colonial deconstruction of African identities in syncretic African spaces and non-spaces. His interest in identity construction extends to photography archives, where he conceptually explores counter-narratives of photographic representation.[2]
