KOKOPELLI Gallery has announced ‘Chaos, Kindly’, a group exhibition that challenges conventional ideas of order and embraces the power of spontaneity.
Presented with Lagos Gallery Weekend, the show brings together striking works that explore the beauty of the unexpected. Featuring works by Imomoh Edgar Asemokah, Chinaza Nkemka, AdubiMydaz, and Damilare Jamiu, the exhibition will run from March 23 to April 5 at Kokopelli Gallery, Ikoyi, Lagos.
Often perceived as a disruption, chaos is, in truth, an integral force of transformation. “Chaos, Kindly” presents an alternative view, where disorder is not an intrusion but an invitation. The exhibition explores the moment before structure takes form, celebrating impulse, accident, and the unexpected harmony that emerges when control is loosened.
Through a diverse collection of paintings and interactive pieces, the featured artists embrace unpredictability, allowing their work to evolve organically. This results in compositions that pulse with energy, capturing the raw essence of creation itself.
Among the standout pieces, Chinaza Nkemka’s Self embodies the vulnerability and fluidity of identity. This mixed-media portrait distorts yet deeply resonates, urging viewers to confront the shifting nature of existence. The fragmented features and expressive textures speak to the unpredictability of self-perception, echoing the exhibition’s theme of embracing the unknown.
Similarly, “Fire Dance” and “Spirit Dance” from the Echoes from the Soul series by AdubiMydaz transform movement into visual poetry. These works capture the raw intensity of love, loss, and resilience through fluid, expressive gestures that evolve into bold, cathartic revelations. Chaos is not destruction here; it is transformation, as sorrow and struggle give way to strength and acceptance.
“Chaos, Kindly” makes you experience unpredictability not as something to fear but as something generous, even necessary. It asks: What if chaos is not destruction but a collaborator?
