Lawrence Chikwa’s newest solo exhibition, “Gifts as Guiding Light: A Unison Touch” at Everyday Lusaka Gallery from 10 October to 26 November 2026.
“A return to the themes first presented in “Lost Garden & Eaten Apples” at Everyday Lusaka in 2024, Chikwa coaxes us to imagine a future imbued with the consequences of our own pursuits of power. Wire, seeds, masks, books, and salvaged objects are carefully chosen, imploring audiences to consider material as beacons of knowledge.
Infused with Christian undertones, Chikwa presents a body of work that commands attention and questions. He asks how technologies and powers from the future can coexist with humanity and ancestral gifts of knowledge from the past. Can one collapse time to navigate our way out of a decaying Eden? Let Chikwa’s “Gifts” show us a way. ”
