The Journey Home

December 3-7th, 2025

Ocean Drive and 12th Street, Miami Beach, FL

Cierra Britton Gallery is thrilled to announce our participation in Untitled Art, Miami Beach's 14th edition in the Nest section, with a solo presentation of Nola Ayoola’s latest series, The Journey Home, from December 3rd through the 7th.

The Journey Home by Nola Ayoola unfolds as a meditation on return—toward a home or place of origin that is at once physical and imagined, ancestral and emotional. Ten new works trace how memory and material intertwine to shape our sense of belonging. Through layered and woven abstraction, natural textiles, and intuitive composition, Ayoola maps fragments of landscape, sound, and tradition—translating everyday life and the spiritual resonance of place into color, movement, and form.

Each work becomes a portal marking a stage along that journey, such as the open roads lined with red earth, corrugated roofs, market fabrics, tropical light, and the overlapping sounds and silences of space. These moments crystallize into core memories—not only of geography, but of feeling and time—surfacing through the movement of paint and the weight of material.

The surfaces of the woven canvas and textiles hold traces of the familiar—the sacred spaces and structures that quietly shape who we are. Ayoola approaches materiality as something alive, allowing each surface to carry memory and presence beyond its physical form. Color becomes a vessel for emotion; gesture, a language of remembering; and form, a site where heritage and the present self meet. In The Journey Home, “home” is not a single point on a map, but a living space within materials and memory—a place where fragments of time, place, and identity continue to be reassembled into something both personal and collective.
