Critical examination of colonial legacy and its impact on African societies and historical narratives.

Created by Yinka Shonibare, this installation artwork is a commentary on the interplay between history and identity, particularly in the context of colonialism and post-colonialism. Shonibare's use of African textiles adds layers of meaning to the work.
