Info

Femilola O'Brien-Dele is a London-based multidisciplinary artist of Irish-Nigerian heritage. Moving fluidly between videomaking, writing, photography, set design, and installation, her practice explores the intricate interplay between space, place, and memory, particularly from a framework of decolonisation and environmentalism.

Grounded in transhistorical research, her work examines the intangible heritage, tradition and cultural practices of minoritised, diasporic, and working-class communities. She draws inspiration from rural spaces, and the rituals, folklore, and oral histories found within. Memory, nostalgia, and the philosophy of hauntology are central to her practice, shaping her exploration of personal and collective histories, and the ways in which they manifest in material culture, storytelling, and spatial experience.
