Ini Archibong stands at the forefront of contemporary design. A Nigerian-American who lives and works in Switzerland, Archibong merges master craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. His practice draws from architecture, philosophy, religion, mathematics, and product design, often engaging mythological and spiritual
themes. His many accolades include the Best Design Medal at the 2021 London Design Biennale for his Pavilion of the African Diaspora (PoAD). He was also named one of Phaidon’s 100 Most Influential Designers. Archibong’s work has appeared at major institutions and events worldwide, including the V&A, LACMA, Design Museum London, Art Basel/Design Miami, and Triennale Milano.
Both the CAD Series and exhibition are generously presented by Wells Fargo.

All talks are free and take place in the Van Every Auditorium at Mint Museum Randolph, 2730 Randolph Road, Charlotte.
