Artist
Buki Koshoni is a British Nigerian artist whose practice spans visual art, film, music and narrative.
RAW is the creative company built around his practice.
For more than two decades, his practice has been concerned with people, identity, culture, power, beauty and resistance. Photography was where the practice began, but it was never intended to be its boundary.
Today, Koshoni works across still and moving image, sound and narrative, moving between visual art, filmmaking, music and screenwriting to make work that exists on its own terms.
The idea comes first.
The medium follows.
What ties the work together isn't a medium. It's the practice.
I move between image, film, music and writing depending on what the idea requires. The medium is never the starting point. The idea comes first. The medium follows.
RAW is that practice: one authorship across visual art, film and music. It gives the work a structure through which ideas can be developed, produced and released. Ventures such as Scout, Life, Corporate and Code extend the same authorship to different customers.
RAW Art, RAW Films, RAW Music are different expressions of the same underlying practice.
The medium changes. The author remains the same.
