Rush Hour catches a single African masquerade figure astride a standard Nigerian okada motorcycle against a blazing cadmium yellow background, the ancestor on the daily commute. The masquerade sits the way every Lagos okada rider sits, one hand on the throttle, one foot lightly on the ground at a junction, body forward, costume trailing behind in the wind of a journey just completed or about to resume. Behind the motorcycle, the road it has come from is marked not by tyre tracks but by ancestral footprints glowing in the yellow, the older journey visible beneath the modern one. This celebrated mixed media fine art print is Giclée printed on museum quality 310gsm Textured Fine Art Cotton Rag and limited to a worldwide edition of only 20 prints. One of the most talked-about works in the Naija Art Store collection, and one of the finest examples of Nigerian painting meeting surrealist wit.
