An Immersive Dialogue Between Art, Taste, and Emotion
Date: December 7, 2025
Location: SOTO Gallery, Lagos
Curated by: Gbotemi
The third edition of Artcation, The Reflection, invites guests into a sensory world where art, taste, and storytelling converge. This year’s theme explores self-awareness, emotion, and the quiet conversations between what we see and what we feel. Each artwork meets a dish, each dish meets a memory, creating an experience that lingers long after the night ends.
