About

Mr Danfo (b. 1991, Nigeria), also known as Seidougha Eyimiegha is a Lagos-based multidisciplinary artist whose practice weaves together painting, sculpture and installation to explore local forms, contemporary designs and popular culture. His experiences in Lagos deeply inform his work, drawing inspiration from its evolving urban culture, he delves into the aesthetics of street life, public signage, and the improvisational systems that shape daily existence. Through satirical and symbolic reinterpretations, Mr Danfo’s works reflect themes of safety, identity, and socio-political commentary that captures contemporary society.
He has exhibited in several institutions and galleries, including Angels and Muse, Lagos, Nigeria (2025), Ressources Urbaines, Geneva, Switzerland (2024), Rele Art Gallery, Lagos, Nigeria (2023), and Alliance Française de Lagos, Nigeria (2022). He also exhibited at the Johannesburg Fair with Bubblegum Gallery in South Africa (2022), the National Museum, Lagos, Nigeria (2021), Museo De Ciudad De Guadalupe, Mexico (2021), and Art Twenty-One, Lagos, Nigeria (2020). He received the Pro Helvetia Grant (2024) and had a residency at the Embassy of Foreign Artists, Geneva. Mr. Danfo’s works are in several publications and private collections around the world.
