It was mix bag of music and visual art recently, when Sterling One modern and contemporary art exhibition held on the topmost floor of the private banking lounge of the financial institution in Lekki Phase 1, Lagos.

The three-day exclusive event had on display, works by artists like Tolu Aliki, Olumide Onadipe and Ufuoma Evuarherhe, all curated by contemporary art space, Rele Gallery.

Guests were feted with exquisite culinary treats from Artist & Scientist, champagne from Fat Bastard, and serenaded by a soulful string quartet and a jazz act, while spoken word artiste, Efe Paul Azino, and novelist Toni Kan read some lines to the guests.

Timi Dakolo proved why he is a sought after act as he delivered an impromptu yet entertaining performance with the string quartet.

Complementing the art and literature at the event was a fashion presentation by Grey and Gozel Green. While Grey showcased its 2016 Spring/Summer pieces with etches of doll-like illustrations, laser cut technique and exaggerated larger-than-life bows, Gozel Green showcased simple and tribal silhouettes, filled with blocked colours, showing off a subtle rawness.

The space exists for other purposes asides art as well, providing its customers a new option to their lifestyle choices, where they can relax, network and share ideas.
