Tales by Moonlight is a body of work that highlights African nighttime oral tradition and situates my world-building practice in that lineage. There are several nods to theatre, set design and puppeteering, thus transforming the landscape into a set. Human figures dye the night sky curtain indigo using ancient dyeing practices from Northern Nigeria. Cowrie shells are used to adorn this curtain of the night sky as stars. Shape-shifting printed ghosts help support this meta world-building by helping transport materials and preparing the curtain.

"So here we have the braided hand of Ó. Ó is the ancestral deity figure in my work. My world Within is made out of hair, Ó, essentially represents the world, and this pantheist ideology of the divine being embedded in the world and nature. Whenever a braided hand is seen, it's also a metaphor for the hand of God and the gesture of a miracle, and the gesture of spiritual mechanics. And so here we see the braided hand, having these cowrie puppets, starting to test to put the stars in the sky, in a puppet master way. So, with this body of work, there's lots of comparing the divine to, like a puppeteer or a magician, and the magical world building alluded to. I use cowries as the stars, because previously in some ancient African kingdoms, they were used as currency and nowadays they're more present as accessories, like jewelry adornments, and they still function, but almost as how gold coins used to be."
