Fresh off announcing their new curator Ugonna Ibe-Ejiogu (also the designer behind CP Woman Lagos), Terra Kulture brought artists and enthusiasts together for its 9th annual TKMG Art Auction Collector’s Preview & Cocktail night. The special evening which is the flagship event of the TKMG Art Auction house and a collaboration of two Lagos-based art galleries, Terra Kulture and Mydrim Gallery, took place at Terra Kulture, Tiamiyu Savage Street, Victoria Island, Lagos.
