Meet the artist
Okhiogbe Omonblanks Omonhinmin
Okhiogbe Omonblanks Omonhinmin was born in Benin City, Nigeria, and has moved through geographies and realities as an interdimensional, interdisciplinary being, an ambassador of entanglement. Omonblanks views the body as a vessel of memory: a collector of experiences that span both ancestral and non-ancestral realms. Through ongoing self-observation, he cultivates a practice of witnessing the physical and non-physical, navigating multi-realities with intentional presence.
About the book
kids from the river brings together intimate poems, lyrical autobiographical essays and family photographs. Moving through memory, dreams, self-reinvention and spirituality, it is rooted in Omonblanks’ Esan origins in Benin City and written in loving memory of his mother, Victoria Elomese Omonhinmin.
The evening programme
Friday 27 November 2026, 17:00–20:00. Please arrive on time for the silent tea ceremony. The One More Book event finishes at 20:00; timings are subject to change.
About the silent tea ceremony
Lilly has practised Cha Dao, the Way of Tea, for 12 years as a member of Global Tea Hut, a tea community based in Taiwan. Drawing on Zen, Daoist philosophy and tea, the ceremony is held in silence: no speaking, only tea, shared and received.
Hosted by One More Book (Florence & Lilly) and Afrofusion Wilhelmsburg.
