In this installment of &#8220;People &amp; Spaces&#8221;, Globetrotter Lab’s Kennedy Ashinze meets with Wunika Mukan at her gallery in Lagos for a tour of the space and a deep dive into the evolution of the contemporary art scene.

Since the inception of Wunika Mukan Gallery in Lagos six years ago, Wunika has dedicated her career to promoting the works of emerging artists from Nigeria, Sub-Saharan Africa, and the diaspora. With a background in prominent non-profit foundations, she brings a unique passion and confidence to curating the quirky and edgy artworks the gallery is known for today.In this conversation, Wunika reflects on founding her gallery during the pandemic and the resilience required to thrive in a shifting landscape. She describes the period around 2020 as the &#8220;Wild West&#8221;—a time of explosive digital discovery and social media hype. Central to her philosophy is the belief that great progress cannot be rushed. As she says: &#8220;Time is God.&#8221;

This visionary is rewriting the rules of global luxury.

Meet Chief Ugo Mozie: designer, creative entrepreneur and storyteller.For over a decade, his fearless style has shaped the world’s biggest stages, dressing icons, collaborating with legendary houses: from Vivienne Westwood, Valentino, Dolce and Gabbana, Balmain, and recently styling the incomparable Diana Ross for the Met Gala.On our recent trip to Lagos during its vibrant art/culture season (Lagos Fashion Week, ART X, Lagos Photo Festival, etc.), Globetrotter Lab&#8217;s Kennedy Ashinze caught up with Ugo for a chat. With his highly anticipated brand, Eleven Sixteen, Ugo is proving that world-class couture, true luxury, and the future of fashion aren’t imported to Africa; they’re born here.

This is the new Made in Africa.

Nigerian Fashion Designer Ugo Mozie on Redefining “Made in Africa” Luxury

Fashion

For over a century, Ògógóró, Africa&#8217;s indigenous spirit, was banned, pushed underground, and demonized by the colonial law. Pedro&#8217;s co-founders Chibu Akukwe and Lola Pedro spent years crossing Nigeria before launching Pedro&#8217;s, Africa&#8217;s first premium Ògógóró.
&nbsp;
In a conversation with Globetrotter Lab&#8217;s Kennedy Ashinze for the latest installment of &#8220;Progress&#8221;, Chibu explains the true meaning of Ògógóró, what colonization did to it, and what it took to bring it back, from community producers in Delta State to Michelin-starred restaurant menus in Europe.

One rule. Never repeat a joke.

That rule turned Bovi Ugboma into a monster—and Nigeria’s most complete entertainer. Writer, actor, stand-up maestro. A man who locked in as a child, moved to Lagos with his own curriculum, and built a career with an unwillingness to accept a ceiling.
