Morohunmubo uses her sketches and art as a medium to depict architectural<br />
elements, environments and<br />
cityscapes hovering between reality and fiction. She believes that many people see<br />
architecture as a sort of<br />
background, constantly impacting their daily experiences but invisibly.<br />
Her works seek to awaken the subconscious mind and bring focus to the shapes<br />
and forms within architecture<br />
be it old or new. The sketch architecture series are influenced by the works of<br />
African architects like El Whakil,<br />
It is a merge of the old and new, driven by the effect of climate change on sustainability<br />
and resilient cities in the world.<br />
Sketch architecture series 005 shows forms and shapes created from solids and<br />
line<br />
with balconies and roofs with passage ways and motifs creating a black and white<br />
collage highlighted with blues, browns and silvers.<br />
The lines send prolific compositions driven by energy and freedom.<br />
