Right now, you can check out "Patent 3306x," a solo show by London artist Appau Jnr Boakye-Yiadom, born in 1984, at the NıCOLETTı gallery. This exhibition is part of his three-year project as the inaugural recipient of the Donna Lynas Residency, running from 2023 to 2026, in partnership with Wysing Arts Centre, Modern Art Oxford, Somerset House, and South London Gallery. During his residency, he delved into musical instruments at the Bate Collection and the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford, which led to a series of exhibits.
