The Time Tunnel
The ‘Time Tunnel’, is a portal, a mythical doorway, where overlapping colors are fused as a representation of our inter-connected cultural, racial and mythological journeys across time.

Ove’s practice is concerned with the dynamism of the African Diaspora, reflecting old world mythologies in new world source material and colonial relics. It is a process of re-visioning and reclaiming lost cultural forms and paying tribute to the past by projecting them into future spiritual and artistic African rooted identities.

Ové’s lens is filtered by his own multicultural heritage and his work stems from a documentation of, and anthropological interest in, Africa and its Diaspora.
His engagement with these two worlds is often explored through ideas inspired by the masking rituals and traditions of Trinidad Carnival much of which is situated in a continuing struggle against colonialism.
Carnival to Ové is a place where fantasy and imagination run riot as the participants ‘play mas’ (masquerade), exploding personal paradigms and histories and challenging life’s circumstances.

Ové’s work is in celebration of the power of play, parody and masking and the blurring of edges between reality and fantasy, flesh and spirit.

The Time Tunnel illustrates this fascination with past and future and how they inform the now: merging and mutating into endless possibilities and unexpected identities.
