It was the last official night of summer, but the Monadnock community turned out to see MacDowell Fellow @chrisiduma present work from his ongoing project “Lagos: The History of Quietude” in our MacDowell Downtown series. The focus of the artist and photojournalist’s MacDowell residency, the project combines documentary sensibilities with experimental and conceptual approaches, reimagining his home city in multi-layered, evocative images that reveal a sense of isolation and quiet stillness. Having arrived at MacDowell with thousands of photographs taken over five years, Christopher is currently at work identifying and contextualizing about 150 photos for inclusion in the finished work. MacDowell Downtown takes place March through November, coinciding with downtown Peterborough’s First Fridays. We hope to see everyone again in October and November for the final two 2023 events in the series. In slides 1 and 2, Christopher Iduma presents a photograph from his “Lagos: The History of Quietude” in @monadnockcenter’s Bass Hall on Friday, September 1, for #MacDowellDowntown (MacDowell Fellow @mehraneh__atashi (23) photo). 3: Christopher discusses his project as MacDowell Resident Director @david.a.macy moderates (MacDowell Program Coordinator Dan Millbauer / @originalmillbad photo). 4: Christopher, with camera (Kath Allen photo) #MacDowellResidency #MacDowellFellow #ChristopherIduma
