From community-focused commissions to design for play, ’Yinka Ilori: Parables of Happiness’ (open until 25 June 2023) celebrates the British-Nigerian designer’s creativity, his influences and his inspirations
Bursting with colour, the solo show follows Ilori’s unconventional voyage into the world of design. Here visitors can view his community-focused commissions, murals, and installations. Projects such as the vibrant play area ‘The Flamboyance of Flamingos’ and early career furniture can be seen alongside more notable work such as a sample of the maze-like 2021 BRIT Awards stage.
In the display, a traditional talking drum named the Dùndún can be found on the same level as a striking maquette by Congolese artist Bodys Isek Kingelez. These objects provide an unprecedented glimpse into the mind of Ilori. The Design Museum worked with the designer to acquire pieces such as the elegant Washington Skeleton Side Chair designed by Sirfor its permanent collection to showcase furniture that inspires the British-Nigerian designer in the exhibition.
