Project
2023 - 2025

Studio Nataal collaborated with the V&A for its landmark exhibition ‘Africa Fashion’. We created its advertising campaign and short film ‘Who Dey Shake’ with Lakin Ogunbanwo, and dedicated a special section of our ‘Beauty in Abundance’ print issue to its curatorial themes.

As ‘Africa Fashion’ travelled, we travelled with it. First to Brooklyn Museum, where Nataal’s film and print issue were on view and we co-hosted its launch event. Then onto The National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne where our editorial voice continued the conversation.
