Daniel Oduntan
Daniel Oduntan is an interdisciplinary media artist whose work spans sound, image, and installation — constructing subtle inquiries into how we witness place, time, and the everyday. Informed by media theory, the lived realities of working-class displacement, and the study and myth of spatial forms, he uses storytelling as a method to examine the structures we inhabit — and how we interpret them.
As part of the Somerset House Assembly Residency, Oduntan is developing the Audio Visual Ensemble — an evolving framework that explores sound, image, and participatory design as tools for collective story-making. The ensemble revisits Soul Complex Unfinished — a previously abandoned series of photography, moving image, and library music that examines material resonance, the architecture of Black memory, and the contested built environment of South London. Reanimated through improvisation, live computation, and conduction, the project unfolds as an open rehearsal: a space for public engagement and shared authorship.
