A work of art in itself, the gallery takes visitors on a visual journey of Mode’s growth and diversity as an artist. Inspired by her Yoruba roots, mode seamlessly translates that into her work and the space. Her photography, paintings and signature sketches left guests with a deeper understanding of her aesthetic. The calming effect of the gallery and store puts one in good stead to understand and really appreciate the art alongside the story told by each piece.

Guests were able to purchase artwork and accessories including tote bags, greeting cards, t-shirts, iPad and laptop skins as well as mobile phone accessories on-site in the Studio of Mode store.

Mode Aderinokun dedicates the space to her late father, Mr. Olutayo Aderinokun, who was a patron of the arts, writer and an art enthusiast.
