"Larry Isimah's introduction to the NY audience is steeped in the Yoruba spiritual vision. Folkloric and mythological symbols and motifs are explored as visual and emotional narratives. In juxtaposing singular and bold symbols he evokes dialogues and polemics, and in his assemblage of multiple and repeated icons he creates hieroglyphic tapestries and ritual fabrics, suggesting an esoteric personal language."
