There is something alchemically exciting about Amah – a new members’ club, co-working space and interdisciplinary meeting point for Lagos’ creative class (opening 20 October 2024). It is founded by photographer, art director and stylist Daniel Obasi, known for his book Beautiful Resistance, published as part of Louis Vuitton’s Fashion Eye series. The tome offers a visually arresting narrative on the queer community of Nigeria and the recent youth-led protests against institutional violence.
With Amah, Obasi expands his community-driven movement thesis further, with the aim of building a physical environment where inspiration, vocation and wonder can meet. We sat down with him to hear more.
